Black-Box Optimization of the Storage Location Assignment Problem in Logistics Centers Using an Annealing Algorithm

Abstract: The manufacturing industry encounters numerous optimization problems, one of which is the optimization of storage location assignment (OSLA) problem in logistics. OSLA is a combinatorial optimization problem focused on improving the efficiency of picking operations in logistics centers. We explore quantum annealing (QA) as a potential solution to combinatorial optimization problems and investigate its […]

A Comprehensive Cross-Model Framework for Benchmarking the Performance of Quantum Hamiltonian Simulations

Abstract: Quantum Hamiltonian simulation is one of the most promising applications of quantum computing and forms the basis for many quantum algorithms. Benchmarking them is an important gauge of progress in quantum computing technology. We present a methodology and software framework to evaluate various facets of the performance of gate-based quantum computers on Trotterized quantum […]
