An MLIR Based Compiler Framework for Quantum Classical Computation (based on Cinnamon)
Paper Link»
The project aims to develop a comprehensive framework for quantum computing that includes a collection of quantum-specific dialects, enabling targeted backends and progressive lowering to Quantum Intermediate Representation (QIR) and LLVM IR. By implementing optimization passes tailored for the quantum dialect, we seek to enhance the performance and efficiency of quantum algorithms. Additionally, this framework will facilitate the integration of classical dialects, allowing for seamless collaboration between quantum and classical computing paradigms. These features are essential for improving the programmability and usability of quantum architectures, making them more accessible to researchers and developers while promoting interoperability across various quantum platforms.
This is an example of how you can build the framework locally.
QUMIN depends on a patched version of LLVM 18.1.6.
Additionally, a number of software packages are required to build it, like CMake.
The repository contains a script, build.sh that installs all needed dependencies and builds the sources.
- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/tud-ccc/Cinnamon.git
- Build the sources
cd Cinnamon chmod +x build.sh ./build.sh
Run build.sh when running first time. Use run.sh when you want to recompile the code after changes. The script file test.sh runs a script to check all operation implementation, optimisation pass, lowering to llvm ir etc.
