Description:
QUANTUM COMPUTATIONS OF CLASSICAL SPECIFICATIONS

BACKGROUND

[0001] The present invention relates to quantum computation, and more specifically, to quantum domain computations of classical domain specifications.

[0002] Quantum computing is generally the use of quantum-mechanical phenomena for the purpose of performing computing and information processing functions. Quantum computing can be viewed in contrast to classical computing, which generally operates on binary values with transistors. That is, while classical computers can operate on bit values that are either 0 or 1 , quantum computers operate on quantum bits that comprise superpositions of both 0 and 1 , can entangle multiple quantum bits, and use interference.

[0003] Quantum computing has the potential to solve problems that, due to their computational complexity, cannot be solved, either at all or for all practical purposes, on a classical computer. However, quantum computing requires very specialized skills to, for example, program a quantum computer. Problems that can benefit from the power of quantum computing, and for which no computational solution has been discovered in the general case on classical computers, have been identified in numerous domains, such as chemistry, artificial intelligence, optimization, and finance.

[0004] Industry-domain experts, who are likely familiar with existing computation software specific to their own domain, can benefit from quantum computing in terms of performance, accuracy, and computational complexity. Such experts want to use existing computational software specific to their domain as a front-end to a quantum computing system. Such experts may also want to use, as inputs to such existing front-end domain-specific computation software, various problem configurations they have collected over time that correspond to various experiments they conducted. Consequently, there exists a need for a computing system that enables classical computational software specific to various domains to: accept the same configuration files used in classic domains, with no modifications; and without requiring a practitioner experienced in a certain domain to learn a quantum programming language; automatically execute some computationally inexpensive computations on a classical computer; and automatically delegate computationally expensive computations to a quantum infrastructure.

However, existing prior art computing systems do not provide such functionality.

[0005] Another problem with existing prior art computing systems is that they can only employ classical computational software specific to one domain, chemistry. Such existing computing systems are not extensible to a plurality of domains. Further, such existing computing systems are not modular or extensible at every level of the software stack, allowing for practitioners with different levels of expertise to dynamically contribute components at different levels of the software stack.

[0006] Additional problems with existing prior art computing systems is that they do not provide for generation of quantum circuit models and execution of such quantum circuit models within the system. Instead, existing prior art computing systems employ remote, third-party quantum computing resources and infrastructures outside the system to facilitate generation and execution of quantum circuit models. This approach generates unnecessary complexity to the overall execution.

[0007] Other problems with some existing computing systems is that they only allow for interfacing third-party quantum algorithms and backends, but such systems do not offer a full software and hardware stack system. Existing computing systems that allow for such interfaces are problematic and cumbersome, as they require the end user to overcome complex configuration challenges associated with, for example, mapping or remapping various components of the existing computing system and/or the plug-in components. Moreover, such existing computing systems require the end user to learn either one or more new programming languages, for example, quantum-computing-specific programming languages, or one or more new Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) in existing languages. Both of these options often require in-depth knowledge and specialized skills. In addition, such existing computing systems that offer the algorithm and backend plug-in option or require the end user to learn a quantum programming language do not offer a configuration validation feature to ensure that all data input to the system and all components are correctly configured. This is a problematic issue because, when dealing with computational applications in a very specialized domain, such as chemistry, artificial intelligence, optimization or finance, and when the complex operations of such applications have to be delegated to a quantum infrastructure, a problem configuration involves setting values for both application- and quantum-specific parameters. Such configurations can become fairly complex, and are often tedious, time consuming, and extremely error prone.

[0008] Another problem with existing systems is that, although they may offer an extensible interface allowing existing computational software programs to be plugged in and classically executed in order to perform computationally inexpensive operations, they do not allow those programs to be accessible by the user because, as explained above, their systems require the input to the computation to be passed through a program written in a new programming language, or an existing programming language with new specialized APIs. This approach has a significant functionality disadvantage in that the additional interface built on top of the classical computational software limits the capabilities of the underlying classical software in that only those capabilities exposed by the new language or APIs will be exposed to the user. The complete functionality of the underlying classical software, which is executed to build the input to the quantum infrastructure, may not be fully exposed and used by the system, leading to inaccurate results, or no results at all. SUMMARY

[0009] The following presents a summary to provide a basic understanding of one or more embodiments of the invention. This summary is not intended to identify key or critical elements, or delineate any scope of the particular embodiments or any scope of the claims.

[0091] In some embodiments, configuration verification component 406 can read domain-specific input data 110 to verify such data is correctly configured for the domain-specific driver component 108 to which the data is input (e.g., a chemistry-specific driver component 108, an Al-specific driver component 108, a CO-specific driver component 108, etc.). For instance, configuration verification component 406 can read a chemistry-specific computational specification and/or configuration to verify it is correctly configured to be input and/or executed by a chemistry-specific driver component 108. For example, configuration verification component 406 can read a chemistry-specific computational specification and/or configuration to verify it is a problem that can be input to a chemistry-specific driver component 108 (e.g., as opposed to an Al-specific driver component 108, for example) and/or solved by quantum computation system 102 utilizing a chemistry-specific driver component 108. In another example, configuration verification component 406 can read a chemistry-specific computational specification and/or configuration to verify it defines the correct parameters and/or parameter ranges a chemistry-specific driver component 108 requires.

[0092] In multiple embodiments, configuration verification component 406 can read quantum-based input data 302 that can be input to circuit generator component 114 to verify it provides the information required for circuit generator component 114 to generate quantum circuit 304. For example, configuration verification component 406 can read quantum-based input data 302 (e.g., a qubit operator and/or a quantum configuration) to verify such data specifies the correct quantum algorithm, the correct quantum algorithm subcomponent, the correct quantum parameter, and/or other quantum-based input data 302 required by circuit generator component 114 to generate quantum circuit 304. [0093] In some embodiments, configuration verification component 406 can verify correctness of domain- specific input data 110, quantum-based input data 302, and/or other input data at the time such data is input to quantum computation system 102 and/or any components associated therewith (e.g., driver component 108, input transformation component 112, circuit generator component 114, etc.). For example, configuration verification component 406 can verify correctness of domain-specific input data 110 at the time an entity inputs such data to a user interface of quantum computation system 102 and/or driver component 108. In another example, configuration verification component 406 can verify correctness of quantum-based input data 302 at the time input transformation component 112 inputs such data to circuit generator component 114.

[0094] In some embodiments, configuration verification component 406 can be activated programmatically.

For instance, configuration verification component 406 can read domain-specific input data 110, quantum-based input data 302, quantum circuit 304, and/or other input data, to verify such data is correctly configured at run time (e.g., at execution of quantum computation system 102 and/or any components associated therewith).

[0095] In several embodiments, configuration verification component 406 can reject incorrect domain-specific input data 110, incorrect quantum-based input data 302, and/or other incorrect data that can be input to or output from any components of quantum computation system 102. For example, configuration verification component 406 can reject incorrect domain-specific input data 110 at the time an entity inputs such data to a user interface of quantum computation system 102 and/or driver component 108 by preventing configuration of driver component 108 based on such incorrect data. In another example, configuration verification component 406 can reject incorrect quantum-based input data 302 at the time input transformation component 112 outputs quantum-based input data 302 by preventing configuration of circuit generator component 114 based on such incorrect data. In still another example, configuration verification component 406 can reject incorrect quantum-based input data 302 at the time input transformation component 112 attempts to input such data to circuit generator component 114 by preventing configuration of circuit generator component 114 based on such incorrect data.

[0096] According to multiple embodiments, delegation component 408 can delegate one or more computational operations to a driver component or a quantum device. In some embodiments, delegation component 408 can delegate solution of one or more portions of domain-specific input data 110 by classical computation. For instance, delegation component 408 can read domain-specific input data 110 to determine whether such data, and/or one or more portions thereof, is computationally inexpensive (e.g., problems having low- level complexity) or computationally expensive (e.g., problems having high-level complexity). In this example, based on whether such data, and/or portions thereof, is computationally inexpensive or computationally expensive, delegation component 408 can further delegate solution of domain-specific input data 110 by classical computation components of quantum computation system 102 and/or by hybrid (e.g., classical and quantum-based) components of quantum computation system 102. [0097] In some embodiments, delegation component 408 can delegate solution of computationally inexpensive domain-specific input data 110, and/or portions thereof, by classical computational operations (e.g., via driver component 108 and/or processor 106). For example, delegation component 408 can delegate solution of computationally inexpensive domain-specific input data 110, and/or portions thereof, to driver component 108. In this example, driver component 108 can employ classical domain-specific computation operations (e.g., mathematical functions, algorithms, etc., as described above with reference to FIG. 1 , FIG. 4, and driver component 108) to generate one or more classical-based results 508.

[0098] In some embodiments, delegation component 408 can delegate solution of computationally expensive domain-specific input data 110, and/or portions thereof, by hybrid (e.g., classical and quantum-based) computational operations. For example, delegation component 408 can delegate solution of computationally expensive domain-specific input data 110, and/or portions thereof, to the various hybrid computation components of quantum computation system 102 to generate quantum-based result 306. For example, delegation component 408 can delegate solution of computationally expensive domain-specific input data 110, and/or portions thereof, to driver component 108, translator component 404, circuit generator component 114, circuit optimization component 202, and/or circuit execution component 204, as described above, to generate quantum-based result 306.

[0099] In some embodiments, quantum computation system 102 can be a quantum domain computation of classical domain specifications system and/or process associated with various technologies. For example, quantum computation system 102 can be associated with classical domain computation technologies, classical domain- specific computation technologies, quantum mechanics technologies, quantum domain computation technologies, quantum computer technologies, quantum hardware and/or software technologies, quantum simulator technologies, classical domain and/or quantum domain data collection technologies, classical domain and/or quantum domain data processing technologies, classical domain and/or quantum domain data analysis technologies, machine learning technologies, artificial intelligence technologies, and/or other technologies.

[00100] In some embodiments, quantum computation system 102 can employ hardware and/or software to solve problems that are highly technical in nature, that are not abstract and that cannot be performed as a set of mental acts by a human. For example, quantum computation system 102 can automatically: transform domain- specific input data to quantum-based input data; and generate a quantum circuit based on the quantum-based input data. In such an example, quantum computation system 102 can also automatically execute the quantum circuit (e.g., via a quantum device, such as, for example, a quantum computer, quantum simulator, quantum hardware, etc.).

[00101] It is to be appreciated that quantum computation system 102 can perform a quantum domain computation of classical domain specifications process utilizing various combinations of electrical components, mechanical components, and circuitry that cannot be replicated in the mind of a human or performed by a human. For example, transforming classical domain input data to quantum domain input data, generating a quantum circuit based on the quantum domain input data, and/or executing the quantum circuit are operations that are greater than the capability of a human mind. For instance, the amount of data processed, the speed of processing such data, and/or the types of data processed by quantum computation system 102 over a certain period of time can be greater, faster, and/or different than the amount, speed, and/or data type that can be processed by a human mind over the same period of time.

[00102] According to several embodiments, quantum computation system 102 can also be fully operational towards performing one or more other functions (e.g., fully powered on, fully executed, etc.) while also performing the above-referenced quantum domain computation of classical domain specifications process. It should be appreciated that such simultaneous multi-operational execution is beyond the capability of a human mind. It should also be appreciated that quantum computation system 102 can include information that is impossible to obtain manually by an entity, such as a human user. For example, the type, amount, and/or variety of information included in driver component 108, domain-specific input data 110, input transformation component 112, circuit generator component 114, and/or circuit execution component 118, can be more complex than information obtained manually by a human user.

[00103] In some embodiments, quantum computation system 102 can provide technical improvements to classical domain computation systems, classical domain-specific computation systems, quantum domain computation systems, quantum computer systems, quantum hardware and/or software systems, quantum simulator systems, classical domain and/or quantum domain data collection systems, classical domain and/or quantum domain data processing systems, classical domain and/or quantum domain data analysis systems, artificial intelligence systems, and/or other systems. For example, quantum computation system 102 can automatically transform classical domain input data to quantum domain input data, generate a quantum circuit based on the quantum domain input data, and/or execute the quantum circuit, thereby facilitating computation of classical domain problems utilizing quantum domain infrastructure (e.g., quantum domain hardware and/or software employing quantum-mechanics phenomena). Further, quantum computation system 102 can facilitate such transformation, circuit generation, and/or quantum circuit execution operations described above based on one or more types of classical domain-specific input data can correspond to at least one of a plurality of domains (e.g., chemistry domain, Al domain, CO domain, SO Domain, and/or Finance Domain), thereby facilitating computation of various classical domain-specific problems utilizing quantum domain infrastructure.

[00104] In some embodiments, quantum computation system 102 can provide technical improvements to a processing unit associated therewith, such as, for example, processor 106, by improving processing capacity, processing accuracy, processing performance, processing efficiency, and/or processing time of processor 106. For instance, quantum computation system 102 can facilitate execution of the quantum circuit described above by employing a quantum device rather than processor 106, thereby facilitating improved processing capacity and/or processing performance associated with processor 106. For example, by executing the quantum circuit via circuit execution component 204 rather than processor 106, the processing workload of processor 106 is thereby reduced, which improves the processing capacity of processor 106 by enabling processor 106 to execute other processing workloads (e.g., processing workloads that are different from the execution of the quantum circuit). Additionally, quantum computation system 102 can facilitate configuration-correctness verification by ensuring all classical domain input data and/or quantum domain input data are configured correctly and compatible with components of quantum computation system 102, thereby facilitating improved processing accuracy, processing efficiency, and/or processing time associated with processor 106. For example, completing such verification prevents processing of incorrect data by processor 106, thereby ensuring processor 106 only processes accurate data, which enables processor 106 to: produce accurate processing results; reduce the number of processing cycles needed to produce such accurate processing results; and/or reduce processing time required to process such data.

[00109] In some embodiments, input transformation component 112 and/or translator component 404 can directly input (e.g., via bus 116) such qubit operator(s) 506 output from translator component 404 to circuit generator component 114. In some embodiments, circuit generator component 114 can generate a quantum circuit 304, based on such qubit operator(s) 506 (e.g., as described above with reference to FIG. 1 , FIG. 4, and circuit generator component 114).

[00110] In some embodiments, circuit generator component 114 can directly input (e.g., via bus 116) such quantum circuit 304 to circuit optimization component 202. In some embodiments, circuit optimization component 202 can remove one or more redundancies of quantum circuit 304 (e.g., as described above with reference to FIG.

In some embodiments, circuit optimization component 202 can directly input (e.g., via bus 116) such optimized quantum circuit 304 to circuit execution component 204. In some embodiments, circuit execution component 204 can generate quantum-based result 306 (e.g., as described above with reference to FIG. 2 and circuit execution component 204).

In some embodiments, quantum domain configuration 700D can comprise a quantum operator (e.g., a qubit operator). In some embodiments, such quantum domain configuration 700D can constitute quantum-based input data 302.

[00132] FIG. 7E illustrates an example, non-limiting declarative-based representation 700E of a quantum domain configuration that facilitates quantum domain computation components in accordance with one or more embodiments described herein. In some embodiments, such declarative-based representation 700E of a quantum domain configuration 700E can constitute quantum-based input data 302.

[00133] FIG. 7F illustrates an example, non-limiting representation 700F of a quantum domain circuit that facilitates quantum domain computation components in accordance with one or more embodiments described herein. In some embodiments, such representation 700F of a quantum domain circuit can constitute quantum circuit 304. In some embodiments, representation 700F can comprise one or more redundancies 702 that can be removed by circuit optimization component 202, as described above with reference to FIG. 2 and circuit optimization component 202. [00134] FIG. 8 illustrates a flow diagram of an example, non-limiting computer-implemented method 800 that facilitates quantum computation components in accordance with one or more embodiments described herein. Repetitive description of like elements employed in other embodiments described herein is omitted for sake of brevity.

[00135] At 802, transforming, by a system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or input transformation component 112) operatively coupled to a processor (e.g., processor 106), one or more types of domain-specific input data (e.g., domain-specific input data 110) to quantum-based input data (e.g., quantum-based input data 302, qubit operator 700D, and/or quantum configuration 700E). In some embodiments, the one or more types of domain-specific input data can correspond to at least one of a plurality of domains (e.g., chemistry domain, Al domain, CO domain, SO Domain, and/or Finance Domain).

[00136] At 804, verifying, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or configuration verification component 406), correctness of the one or more types of domain-specific input data or the quantum- based input data. In some embodiments, such verification (e.g., via configuration verification component 406) can facilitate improved processing accuracy and/or improved processing efficiency associated with processor 106. For example, such verification (e.g., via configuration verification component 406) prior to processing one or more types of domain-specific input data or the quantum-based input data prevents processing of incorrect data by processor 106, thereby ensuring processor 106 only processes accurate data, which enables processor 106 to: produce accurate processing results; reduce the number of processing cycles needed to produce such accurate processing results; and/or reduce processing time required to process such data.

[00137] At 806, based on the quantum-based input data, generating, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or circuit generator component 114), a quantum circuit (e.g., quantum circuit 304 and/or quantum circuit representation 700F). At 808, removing, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or circuit optimization component 202), one or more redundancies (e.g., redundancies 702F) of the quantum circuit. At 810, executing, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or circuit execution component 204), the quantum circuit. In some embodiments, such execution of the quantum circuit can be performed by circuit execution component 204 rather than the processor (e.g., processor 106), thereby facilitating improved processing capacity associated with the processor (e.g., processor 106). For example, by executing the quantum circuit via circuit execution component 204 rather than processor 106, the processing workload of processor 106 is thereby reduced, which improves the processing capacity of processor 106 by enabling processor 106 to execute other processing workloads (e.g., processing workloads that are different from the execution of the quantum circuit). [00138] FIG. 9 illustrates a flow diagram of an example, non-limiting computer-implemented method 900 that facilitates quantum computation components in accordance with one or more embodiments described herein. Repetitive description of like elements employed in other embodiments described herein is omitted for sake of brevity.

[00139] At 902, based on one or more types of domain-specific input data (e.g., domain-specific input data 110), generating, by a system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102, input transformation component 112, input generation component 402, and/or driver component 108) operatively coupled to a processor (e.g., processor 106), a domain-specific operator (e.g., domain-specific operator 504). In some embodiments, the one or more types of domain-specific input data can correspond to at least one of a plurality of domains (e.g., chemistry domain, Al domain, CO domain, SO Domain, and/or Finance Domain).

[00140] At 904, translating, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102, input transformation component 112, and/or translator component 404), the domain-specific operator to quantum-based input data (e.g., quantum-based input data 302, qubit operator 700D, and/or quantum configuration 700E). In some embodiments, the quantum-based input data can comprise a qubit operator (e.g., qubit operator 700D).

[00141] At 906, verifying, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or configuration verification component 406), correctness of at least one of: the one or more types of domain-specific input data; the domain-specific operator; the quantum-based input data; or the qubit operator. In some embodiments, such verification (e.g., via configuration verification component 406) can facilitate improved processing accuracy and/or improved processing efficiency associated with processor 106. For example, such verification (e.g., via configuration verification component 406) prior to processing one or more types of domain-specific input data or the quantum-based input data prevents processing of incorrect data by processor 106, thereby ensuring processor 106 only processes accurate data, which enables processor 106 to: produce accurate processing results; reduce the number of processing cycles needed to produce such accurate processing results; and/or reduce processing time required to process such data.

[00142] At 908, based on the qubit operator, generating, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or circuit generator component 114), a quantum circuit (e.g., quantum circuit 304 and/or quantum circuit representation 700F). At 910, removing, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or circuit optimization component 202), one or more redundancies (e.g., redundancies 702F) of the quantum circuit. At 912, executing, by the system (e.g., via quantum computation system 102 and/or circuit execution component 204), the quantum circuit. In some embodiments, such execution of the quantum circuit can be performed by circuit execution component 204 rather than the processor (e.g., processor 106), thereby facilitating improved processing capacity associated with the processor (e.g., processor 106). For example, by executing the quantum circuit via circuit execution component 204 rather than processor 106, the processing workload of processor 106 is thereby reduced, which improves the processing capacity of processor 106 by enabling processor 106 to execute other processing workloads (e.g., processing workloads that are different from the execution of the quantum circuit).

[00143] For simplicity of explanation, the computer-implemented methodologies are depicted and described as a series of acts. It is to be understood and appreciated that the subject innovation is not limited by the acts illustrated and/or by the order of acts, for example acts can occur in various orders and/or concurrently, and with other acts not presented and described herein. Furthermore, not all illustrated acts can be required to implement the computer-implemented methodologies in accordance with the disclosed subject matter. In addition, those skilled in the art will understand and appreciate that the computer-implemented methodologies could alternatively be represented as a series of interrelated states via a state diagram or events. Additionally, it should be further appreciated that the computer-implemented methodologies disclosed hereinafter and throughout this specification are capable of being stored on an article of manufacture to facilitate transporting and transferring such computer- implemented methodologies to computers. The term article of manufacture, as used herein, is intended to encompass a computer program accessible from any computer-readable device or storage media.

[00144] In order to provide a context for the various aspects of the disclosed subject matter, FIG. 10 as well as the following discussion are intended to provide a general description of a suitable environment in which the various aspects of the disclosed subject matter can be implemented. FIG. 10 illustrates a block diagram of an example, non-limiting operating environment in which one or more embodiments described herein can be facilitated.

Repetitive description of like elements employed in other embodiments described herein is omitted for sake of brevity.

[00145] With reference to FIG. 10, a suitable operating environment 1000 for implementing various aspects of this disclosure can also include a computer 1012. The computer 1012 can also include a processing unit 1014, a system memory 1016, and a system bus 1018. The system bus 1018 couples system components including, but not limited to, the system memory 1016 to the processing unit 1014. The processing unit 1014 can be any of various available processors. Dual microprocessors and other multiprocessor architectures also can be employed as the processing unit 1014. The system bus 1018 can be any of several types of bus structure(s) including the memory bus or memory controller, a peripheral bus or external bus, and/or a local bus using any variety of available bus architectures including, but not limited to, Industrial Standard Architecture (ISA), Micro-Channel Architecture (MSA), Extended ISA (EISA), Intelligent Drive Electronics (IDE), VESA Local Bus (VLB), Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI), Card Bus, Universal Serial Bus (USB), Advanced Graphics Port (AGP), Firewire (IEEE 1394), and Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI). [00146] The system memory 1016 can also include volatile memory 1020 and nonvolatile memory 1022. The basic input/output system (BIOS), containing the basic routines to transfer information between elements within the computer 1012, such as during start-up, is stored in nonvolatile memory 1022. Computer 1012 can also include removable/non-removable, volatile/non-volatile computer storage media. FIG. 10 illustrates, for example, a disk storage 1024. Disk storage 1024 can also include, but is not limited to, devices like a magnetic disk drive, floppy disk drive, tape drive, Jaz drive, Zip drive, LS-100 drive, flash memory card, or memory stick. The disk storage 1024 also can include storage media separately or in combination with other storage media. To facilitate connection of the disk storage 1024 to the system bus 1018, a removable or non-removable interface is typically used, such as interface 1026. FIG. 10 also depicts software that acts as an intermediary between users and the basic computer resources described in the suitable operating environment 1000. Such software can also include, for example, an operating system 1028. Operating system 1028, which can be stored on disk storage 1024, acts to control and allocate resources of the computer 1012.

[00147] System applications 1030 take advantage of the management of resources by operating system 1028 through program modules 1032 and program data 1034, e.g., stored either in system memory 1016 or on disk storage 1024. It is to be appreciated that this disclosure can be implemented with various operating systems or combinations of operating systems. A user enters commands or information into the computer 1012 through input device(s) 1036. Input devices 1036 include, but are not limited to, a pointing device such as a mouse, trackball, stylus, touch pad, keyboard, microphone, joystick, game pad, satellite dish, scanner, TV tuner card, digital camera, digital video camera, web camera, and the like. These and other input devices connect to the processing unit 1014 through the system bus 1018 via interface port(s) 1038. Interface port(s) 1038 include, for example, a serial port, a parallel port, a game port, and a universal serial bus (USB). Output device(s) 1040 use some of the same type of ports as input device(s) 1036. Thus, for example, a USB port can be used to provide input to computer 1012, and to output information from computer 1012 to an output device 1040. Output adapter 1042 is provided to illustrate that there are some output devices 1040 like monitors, speakers, and printers, among other output devices 1040, which require special adapters. The output adapters 1042 include, by way of illustration and not limitation, video and sound cards that provide a means of connection between the output device 1040 and the system bus 1018. It should be noted that other devices and/or systems of devices provide both input and output capabilities such as remote computer(s) 1044.

[00148] Computer 1012 can operate in a networked environment using logical connections to one or more remote computers, such as remote computer(s) 1044. The remote computer(s) 1044 can be a computer, a server, a router, a network PC, a workstation, a microprocessor based appliance, a peer device or other common network node and the like, and typically can also include many or all of the elements described relative to computer 1012. For purposes of brevity, only a memory storage device 1046 is illustrated with remote computer(s) 1044. Remote computer(s) 1044 is logically connected to computer 1012 through a network interface 1048 and then physically connected via communication connection 1050. Network interface 1048 encompasses wire and/or wireless communication networks such as local-area networks (LAN), wide-area networks (WAN), cellular networks, etc.

LAN technologies include Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI), Copper Distributed Data Interface (CDDI), Ethernet, Token Ring and the like. WAN technologies include, but are not limited to, point-to-point links, circuit switching networks like Integrated Services Digital Networks (ISDN) and variations thereon, packet switching networks, and Digital Subscriber Lines (DSL). Communication connection(s) 1050 refers to the hardware/software employed to connect the network interface 1048 to the system bus 1018. While communication connection 1050 is shown for illustrative clarity inside computer 1012, it can also be external to computer 1012. The hardware/software for connection to the network interface 1048 can also include, for exemplary purposes only, internal and external technologies such as, modems including regular telephone grade modems, cable modems and DSL modems,

ISDN adapters, and Ethernet cards.

[00149] The present invention may be a system, a method, an apparatus and/or a computer program product at any possible technical detail level of integration. The computer program product can include a computer readable storage medium (or media) having computer readable program instructions thereon for causing a processor to carry out aspects of the present invention. The computer readable storage medium can be a tangible device that can retain and store instructions for use by an instruction execution device. The computer readable storage medium can be, for example, but is not limited to, an electronic storage device, a magnetic storage device, an optical storage device, an electromagnetic storage device, a semiconductor storage device, or any suitable combination of the foregoing. A non-exhaustive list of more specific examples of the computer readable storage medium can also include the following: a portable computer diskette, a hard disk, a random access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM or Flash memory), a static random access memory (SRAM), a portable compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM), a digital versatile disk (DVD), a memory stick, a floppy disk, a mechanically encoded device such as punch-cards or raised structures in a groove having instructions recorded thereon, and any suitable combination of the foregoing. A computer readable storage medium, as used herein, is not to be construed as being transitory signals per se, such as radio waves or other freely propagating electromagnetic waves, electromagnetic waves propagating through a waveguide or other transmission media (e.g., light pulses passing through a fiber-optic cable), or electrical signals transmitted through a wire.

[00150] Computer readable program instructions described herein can be downloaded to respective computing/processing devices from a computer readable storage medium or to an external computer or external storage device via a network, for example, the Internet, a local area network, a wide area network and/or a wireless network. The network can comprise copper transmission cables, optical transmission fibers, wireless transmission, routers, firewalls, switches, gateway computers and/or edge servers. A network adapter card or network interface in each computing/processing device receives computer readable program instructions from the network and forwards the computer readable program instructions for storage in a computer readable storage medium within the respective computing/processing device. Computer readable program instructions for carrying out operations of the present invention can be assembler instructions, instruction-set-architecture (ISA) instructions, machine instructions, machine dependent instructions, microcode, firmware instructions, state-setting data, configuration data for integrated circuitry, or either source code or object code written in any combination of one or more programming languages, including an object oriented programming language such as Smalltalk, C++, or the like, and procedural programming languages, such as the "C" programming language or similar programming languages. The computer readable program instructions can execute entirely on the user's computer, partly on the user's computer, as a stand-alone software package, partly on the user's computer and partly on a remote computer or entirely on the remote computer or server. In the latter scenario, the remote computer can be connected to the user's computer through any type of network, including a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN), or the connection can be made to an external computer (for example, through the Internet using an Internet Service Provider). In some embodiments, electronic circuitry including, for example, programmable logic circuitry, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA), or programmable logic arrays (PLA) can execute the computer readable program instructions by utilizing state information of the computer readable program instructions to personalize the electronic circuitry, in order to perform aspects of the present invention.

[00151] Aspects of the present invention are described herein with reference to flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams of methods, apparatus (systems), and computer program products according to embodiments of the invention. It will be understood that each block of the flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams, and combinations of blocks in the flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams, can be implemented by computer readable program instructions. These computer readable program instructions can be provided to a processor of a general purpose computer, special purpose computer, or other programmable data processing apparatus to produce a machine, such that the instructions, which execute via the processor of the computer or other programmable data processing apparatus, create means for implementing the functions/acts specified in the flowchart and/or block diagram block or blocks. These computer readable program instructions can also be stored in a computer readable storage medium that can direct a computer, a programmable data processing apparatus, and/or other devices to function in a particular manner, such that the computer readable storage medium having instructions stored therein comprises an article of manufacture including instructions which implement aspects of the function/act specified in the flowchart and/or block diagram block or blocks. The computer readable program instructions can also be loaded onto a computer, other programmable data processing apparatus, or other device to cause a series of operational acts to be performed on the computer, other programmable apparatus or other device to produce a computer implemented process, such that the instructions which execute on the computer, other programmable apparatus, or other device implement the functions/acts specified in the flowchart and/or block diagram block or blocks. [00152] The flowchart and block diagrams in the Figures illustrate the architecture, functionality, and operation of possible implementations of systems, methods, and computer program products according to various embodiments of the present invention. In this regard, each block in the flowchart or block diagrams can represent a module, segment, or portion of instructions, which comprises one or more executable instructions for implementing the specified logical function(s). In some alternative implementations, the functions noted in the blocks can occur out of the order noted in the Figures. For example, two blocks shown in succession can, in fact, be executed substantially concurrently, or the blocks can sometimes be executed in the reverse order, depending upon the functionality involved. It will also be noted that each block of the block diagrams and/or flowchart illustration, and combinations of blocks in the block diagrams and/or flowchart illustration, can be implemented by special purpose hardware-based systems that perform the specified functions or acts or carry out combinations of special purpose hardware and computer instructions.

[00153] While the subject matter has been described above in the general context of computer-executable instructions of a computer program product that runs on a computer and/or computers, those skilled in the art will recognize that this disclosure also can or can be implemented in combination with other program modules.

Generally, program modules include routines, programs, components, data structures, etc. that perform particular tasks and/or implement particular abstract data types. Moreover, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the inventive computer-implemented methods can be practiced with other computer system configurations, including single-processor or multiprocessor computer systems, mini-computing devices, mainframe computers, as well as computers, hand-held computing devices (e.g., PDA, phone), microprocessor-based or programmable consumer or industrial electronics, and the like. The illustrated aspects can also be practiced in distributed computing environments in which tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network. Flowever, some, if not all aspects of this disclosure can be practiced on stand-alone computers. In a distributed computing environment, program modules can be located in both local and remote memory storage devices.

[00154] As used in this application, the terms“component,”“system,”“platform,”“interfac e,” and the like, can refer to and/or can include a computer-related entity or an entity related to an operational machine with one or more specific functionalities. The entities disclosed herein can be either hardware, a combination of hardware and software, software, or software in execution. For example, a component can be, but is not limited to being, a process running on a processor, a processor, an object, an executable, a thread of execution, a program, and/or a computer. By way of illustration, both an application running on a server and the server can be a component. One or more components can reside within a process and/or thread of execution and a component can be localized on one computer and/or distributed between two or more computers. In another example, respective components can execute from various computer readable media having various data structures stored thereon. The components can communicate via local and/or remote processes such as in accordance with a signal having one or more data packets (e.g., data from one component interacting with another component in a local system, distributed system, and/or across a network such as the Internet with other systems via the signal). As another example, a component can be an apparatus with specific functionality provided by mechanical parts operated by electric or electronic circuitry, which is operated by a software or firmware application executed by a processor. In such a case, the processor can be internal or external to the apparatus and can execute at least a part of the software or firmware application. As yet another example, a component can be an apparatus that provides specific functionality through electronic components without mechanical parts, wherein the electronic components can include a processor or other means to execute software or firmware that confers at least in part the functionality of the electronic components. In an aspect, a component can emulate an electronic component via a virtual machine, e.g., within a cloud computing system.

[00155] In addition, the term“or” is intended to mean an inclusive“or” rather than an exclusive“or.” That is, unless specified otherwise, or clear from context,“X employs A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive permutations. That is, if X employs A; X employs B; or X employs both A and B, then“X employs A or B” is satisfied under any of the foregoing instances. Moreover, articles“a” and“an” as used in the subject specification and annexed drawings should generally be construed to mean“one or more” unless specified otherwise or clear from context to be directed to a singular form. As used herein, the terms“example” and/or“exemplary” are utilized to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. For the avoidance of doubt, the subject matter disclosed herein is not limited by such examples. In addition, any aspect or design described herein as an“example” and/or “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other aspects or designs, nor is it meant to preclude equivalent exemplary structures and techniques known to those of ordinary skill in the art.

[00156] As it is employed in the subject specification, the term“processor” can refer to substantially any computing processing unit or device comprising, but not limited to, single-core processors; single-processors with software multithread execution capability; multi-core processors; multi-core processors with software multithread execution capability; multi-core processors with hardware multithread technology; parallel platforms; and parallel platforms with distributed shared memory. Additionally, a processor can refer to an integrated circuit, an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a digital signal processor (DSP), a field programmable gate array (FPGA), a programmable logic controller (PLC), a complex programmable logic device (CPLD), a discrete gate or transistor logic, discrete hardware components, or any combination thereof designed to perform the functions described herein. Further, processors can exploit nano-scale architectures such as, but not limited to, molecular and quantum-dot based transistors, switches and gates, in order to optimize space usage or enhance performance of user equipment. A processor can also be implemented as a combination of computing processing units. In this disclosure, terms such as“store,”“storage,”“data store,” data storage,”“database,” and substantially any other information storage component relevant to operation and functionality of a component are utilized to refer to “memory components,” entities embodied in a“memory,” or components comprising a memory. It is to be appreciated that memory and/or memory components described herein can be either volatile memory or nonvolatile memory, or can include both volatile and nonvolatile memory. By way of illustration, and not limitation, nonvolatile memory can include read only memory (ROM), programmable ROM (PROM), electrically programmable ROM (EPROM), electrically erasable ROM (EEPROM), flash memory, or nonvolatile random access memory (RAM)

(e.g., ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM). Volatile memory can include RAM, which can act as external cache memory, for example. By way of illustration and not limitation, RAM is available in many forms such as synchronous RAM (SRAM), dynamic RAM (DRAM), synchronous DRAM (SDRAM), double data rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM), enhanced SDRAM (ESDRAM), Synchlink DRAM (SLDRAM), direct Rambus RAM (DRRAM), direct Rambus dynamic RAM (DRDRAM), and Rambus dynamic RAM (RDRAM). Additionally, the disclosed memory components of systems or computer-implemented methods herein are intended to include, without being limited to including, these and any other suitable types of memory.

[00157] What has been described above include mere examples of systems and computer-implemented methods. It is, of course, not possible to describe every conceivable combination of components or computer- implemented methods for purposes of describing this disclosure, but one of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that many further combinations and permutations of this disclosure are possible. Furthermore, to the extent that the terms“includes,”“has,”“possesses,” and the like are used in the detailed description, claims, appendices and drawings such terms are intended to be inclusive in a manner similar to the term“comprising” as“comprising” is interpreted when employed as a transitional word in a claim.

[00158] The descriptions of the various embodiments have been presented for purposes of illustration, but are not intended to be exhaustive or limited to the embodiments disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein was chosen to best explain the principles of the embodiments, the practical application or technical improvement over technologies found in the marketplace, or to enable others of ordinary skill in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
