About Qiskit
Qiskit includes a comprehensive set of quantum gates and a variety of pre-built circuits so users at all levels can use Qiskit for research and application development. The transpiler translates Qiskit code into an optimized circuit using a backend’s native gate set, allowing users to program for any quantum processor. Users can transpile with Qiskit's default optimization, use a custom configuration or develop their own plugin. Qiskit helps users schedule and run quantum programs on a variety of local simulators and cloud-based quantum processors. It supports several quantum hardware designs, such as superconducting qubits and trapped ions. Ready to explore Qiskit’s capabilities for yourself? Learn how to run Qiskit in the cloud or your local Python environment.

LIQUi|>
LIQUi|> is a software architecture and tool suite for quantum computing. It includes a programming language, optimization and scheduling algorithms, and quantum simulators. LIQUi|> can be used to translate a quantum algorithm written in the form of a high-level program into the low-level machine instructions for a quantum device. LIQUi|> is being developed by the quantum architectures and computation Group (QuArC) at Microsoft Research. To aid in the development and understanding of quantum protocols, quantum algorithms, quantum error correction, and quantum devices, QuArC has developed an extensive software platform called LIQUi|>. LIQUi|> allows the simulation of Hamiltonians, quantum circuits, quantum stabilizer circuits, and quantum noise models, and supports client, service, and cloud operation.

Quantum Programming Studio
Circuit can be exported to multiple quantum programming languages/frameworks and can be executed on various simulators and quantum computers. You can use simple drag & drop user interface to assemble circuit diagram which automatically translates to code, and vice versa - you can type the code and the diagram is updated accordingly. QPS Client is running on your local machine (or in the cloud) where your quantum programming environment is installed. It opens a secure websocket connection with Quantum Programming Studio server and executes quantum circuits (that you design in the web UI) on your local simulator or on a real quantum computer.

QX Simulator
The realization of large-scale physical quantum computers appears to be challenging, alongside the efforts to design quantum computers, significant efforts are focusing on the development of useful quantum algorithms. In the absence of a large physical quantum computer, an accurate software simulation of quantum computers on a classical computer is required to simulate the execution of those quantum algorithms and to study the behavior of a quantum computer and improve its design. Besides simulating error-free execution quantum circuits on a perfect quantum computer, the QX simulator can simulate realistic noisy execution using different error models such as the depolarizing noise. The user can activate the error model and define a physical error probability to simulate a specific target quantum computer. This error rate can be defined based on the gate fidelity and the qubit decoherence of the target platform.

Intel Quantum Simulator
It is based on a complete representation of the qubit state but avoids the explicit representation of gates and other quantum operations in terms of matrices. Intel-QS uses the MPI (message-passing-interface) protocol to handle communication between the distributed resources used to store and manipulate quantum states. Intel-QS builds as a shared library which, once linked to the application program, allows to take advantage of the high-performance implementation of circuit simulations. The library can be built on a variety of different systems, from laptops to HPC server systems.
