Instruction scheduling facilitating mitigation of crosstalk in a quantum computing system

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• obtaining, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, device characterization data of a quantum device;
• generating, by the system, a quantum gate execution schedule comprising parallel execution and serial execution of quantum gates in the quantum device based on the device characterization data;
• and
• generating, by the system, a quantum circuit based on the quantum gate execution schedule, wherein the quantum circuit comprises one or more barriers that serialize execution of one or more of the quantum gates.

A computer program product facilitating an instruction scheduling process to mitigate at least one of quantum gate crosstalk errors or qubit decoherence errors in a quantum device based on device characterization data, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:

• obtain, by the processor, device characterization data of a quantum device;
• generate, by the processor, a quantum gate execution schedule comprising parallel execution and serial execution of quantum gates in the quantum device based on the device characterization data;
• and
• generate, by the processor, a quantum circuit based on the quantum gate execution schedule, and wherein the quantum circuit comprises one or more barriers that serialize execution of one or more of the quantum gates.
