Quantum-Kit: Simulating Shor's Factorization of 24-Bit Number on Desktop

Understand

Quantum-Kit is a graphical desktop application for quantum circuit simulations.

• Its powerful, memory-efficient computational engine enables large-scale simulations on a desktop.
• The ability to design hybrid circuits, with both quantum and classical bits and controls, is employed to demonstrate Kitaev's approach to Shor's factorization algorithm.
• For the first time, Shor's factorization of a 24-bit integer is simulated with Quantum-Kit in a mere 26 minutes on a modest desktop with Intel Core i5 7400T, 2.4GHz and12GB RAM.
