On January 22, 2025, at the 30th Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference in Tokyo, Japan, UCLA Professor Jason Cong delivered a keynote titled “Compilation and Architecture Optimization for Quantum Computing”.
The conference, a major event in Electronic Design Automation, gathers researchers, engineers, and industry experts to discuss advancements in Very Large-Scale Integration and automation tools. It also provides a platform for exploring new methodologies and emerging trends in circuit and system design.
Professor Cong’s talk focused on improving compilation techniques and optimizing quantum architectures for better efficiency and scalability. He emphasized the importance of compilation methodologies in bridging quantum algorithms and hardware and he discussed strategies to enhance quantum computing performance. His speech addressed challenges such as qubit compilation scalability, support of both fixed qubit entanglement architecture and programmable architecture, and compiler-guided quantum architecture optimization.
