QASMTrans: A QASM Quantum Transpiler Framework for NISQ Devices
DescriptionIn the field of Quantum Computing, transpilation plays a crucial role in converting high-level quantum circuits into versions that are specific to the underlying quantum devices. This process necessitates a consideration of a range of factors, such as the basis gate set, device topology, error profile, and other constraints. Yet, the efficiency of transpilation remains a significant bottleneck, particularly when dealing with very large assembly or QASM-level input files. In this paper, we present QASMTrans, a C++ based high-performance quantum transpiler. NWQTrans has demonstrated significant efficiency improvements compared to widely adopted approaches such as Qiskit. Built on comprehensive transpilation principles and efficient computation techniques, QASMTrans demonstrates 8-368X speedups on average compared to the internal transpiler of Qiskit. Such tremendous speedups thus make the exploration of much larger design space, as well as more comprehensive compiler optimizations, become feasible, especially for large circuits. QASMTrans will be released at http://github.com/pnnl/qasmtrans.
