Abstract

Introduction to the Special Issue on Software Tools for Quantum Computing: Part 2 Quantum computing is emerging as a remarkable technology that offers the possibility of achiev- ing major scientific breakthroughs in many areas. By leveraging the unique features of quantum mechanics, quantum computers may be instrumental in advancing many areas, including science, energy, defense, medicine, and finance. This includes solving complex problems whose solution lies well beyond the capacity of contemporary and even future supercomputers that are based on conventional computing technologies. As a foundation for future generations of computing and information processing, quantum computing represents an exciting area for developing new ideas in computer science and computational engineering. Interacting with the emerging capabilities of quantum computers, including noisy-intermediate scale quantum devices, for both basic and applied research will require an end-to-end software stack not unlike the one we rely on in classical computing.
