Energy consumption by reversible circuits in the 130 nm and 65 nm nodes
We show that both 130 nm and 65 nm technologies
are suitable for reversible computation
Quantum Programming Made Easy
We present IQu, namely a quantum programming language that extends Reynold's
Idealized Algol, the paradigmatic core of Algol-like languages. IQu combines
imperative programming with high-order features, mediated by a simple type
theory. IQu mildly merges its quantum features with the classical programming
style that we can experiment through Idealized Algol, the aim being to ease a
transition towards the quantum programming world. The proposed extension is
done along two main directions. First, IQu makes the access to quantum
co-processors by means of quantum stores. Second, IQu includes some support for
the direct manipulation of quantum circuits, in accordance with recent trends
in the development of quantum programming languages. Finally, we show that IQu
is quite effective in expressing well-known quantum algorithms.Comment: In Proceedings Linearity-TLLA 2018, arXiv:1904.0615
