Explore application-driven evaluation methodologies for fault-tolerant quantum computing architectures in this 52-minute conference presentation from IPAM's workshop on bridging NISQ and FTQC platforms. Learn about the transition from NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) systems to fault-tolerant quantum computing architectures and understand how Quantum Error Correction (QEC) codes and specific applications drive architectural design decisions. Discover the pyLIQTR framework developed at Lincoln Laboratory, a comprehensive set of tools designed for application implementation and architectural analysis that enables co-design of hardware with QEC and algorithm development. Examine detailed analyses across diverse application domains including lattice spin dynamics, ground-state problems, chemical catalysis, NMR spectroscopy, and electronic structure systems. Compare various fault-tolerant architectures ranging from simple lattice-surgery based surface code implementations to more complex block code-based systems. Understand how incorporating QEC details and application implementation requirements into architectural design trade-offs improves assessment fidelity and supports more effective hardware-software co-design strategies for next-generation quantum computing platforms.
