• Abstract summary: We describe the Parallel Research Kernels (PRK), a tool that was very useful for designing classical parallel computing systems. We hypothesize that an analogous tool for quantum computing, Quantum Research Kernels (QRK), may similarly aid the co-design of software and hardware for quantum computing systems.

• Abstract: Quantum computing represents a paradigm shift for computation requiring an entirely new computer architecture. However, there is much that can be learned from traditional classical computer engineering. In this paper, we describe the Parallel Research Kernels (PRK), a tool that was very useful for designing classical parallel computing systems. The PRK are simple kernels written to expose bottlenecks that limit classical parallel computing performance. We hypothesize that an analogous tool for quantum computing, Quantum Research Kernels (QRK), may similarly aid the co-design of software and hardware for quantum computing systems, and we give a few examples of representative QRKs.

  Kernel methods in machine learning is one area where such improvements could be realized in the future. Small and noisy quantum computers can evaluate classically-parametric quantum kernels that capture unique notions of similarity in data. We consider pairwise combinations of classical, quantum-quantum, quantum-classical and QC kernels in the context of multiple kernel (MKL) We show this approach to be effective for enhancing various metrics performance in an MKL setting.
