Abstract
Interactions between a classical computing system and a quantum computing system can be structured to increase the effective memory available to hold instructions for a quantum processor. The system stores a schedule of compiled quantum processing instructions in a memory storage location on a classical computing system. A small program memory is included in close proximity to a control system for the quantum processor on the quantum computing system. The classical computing system sends a subset of instructions from the schedule of quantum instructions to the program memory. The control system manages execution of the instructions by accessing them at the program memory and configuring the quantum processor accordingly. While the quantum processor executes the instructions, additional instructions are transferred from the classical computing system to the program memory to await execution. The quantum system can execute many instructions quickly without idling while instructions are fetched from a large memory.
