Abstract
A computer system, designed according to a particular architecture, compiles and execute a general quantum program. Computer systems designed in accordance with the architecture are suitable for use with a variety of programming languages and a variety of hardware backends. The architecture includes a classical computer and a quantum device (which may be remote from the local computer) which includes both classical execution units and a quantum processing unit (QPU).
