Canada-based D-Wave Systems has released an open-source software tool designed to help developers program quantum computers, Wired reported Wednesday.
Klint Finley writes users can modify and share the Qbsolv open-source software for free as well as create applications for D-Wave’s hardware.
Scott Pakin of Los Alamos National Laboratory also unveiled in 2016 Qmasm, a software platform that works to help developers write codes for D-Wave’s quantum computers, Finley notes.
D-Wave launched the software tool three months after it established a new subsidiary, D-Wave Government, that will work to provide quantum computer systems to U.S. government agencies.
