Quantum Based Software Engineering

Abstract

Classical computing, which gave us the current digital age, is about to be overridden by a more exciting, powerful, and radically distinct form of computing technology termed as quantum computing. Quantum-based computing may eventually be millions of times faster than the computing power that we all use today inside our smart phones, laptop computers, and other devices. By leveraging the fundamentals of quantum mechanics, quantum potential is initially focused in this research. A baseline will be drawn to get through the fundamentals of quantum computing. To get insights, currently available quantum computing platforms or environments are described. Software quality models are investigated to enlist detailed software quality attributes and their relevance for different software application types. We have presented characteristics of quantum computers or quantum processors that may be pertinent to software quality attributes. How these quantum computer characteristics (QCCs) may impact quality of quantum software, is analyzed in the end.
