Abstract

A method, system and computer program product for visually depicting a topology of a quantum device. Quantum system calibration data is retrieved, which includes the number of qubits utilized by the quantum device and a coupling map, which provides connectivity data pertaining to how qubits of the quantum device are interconnected. Furthermore, the operational characteristics of the quantum device are retrieved. A topology diagram of the quantum device is then generated and displayed based on the quantum system calibration data and the operational characteristics of the quantum device, where the nodes in the topology diagram represent the qubits utilized by the quantum device and are interconnected in the topology diagram based on the coupling map. Furthermore, the distance of each line interconnecting two nodes is based on the operational characteristics of the quantum device, such as the value of the operational characteristic involving the qubits represented by the two nodes.
