Abstract

We set down the principles behind a modeling language for quantum software. We present a minimal set of extensions to the well-known Unified Modeling Language (UML) that allows it to effectively model quantum software. These extensions are separate and independent of UML as a whole. As such they can be used to extend any other software modeling language, or as a basis for a completely new language. We argue that these extensions are both necessary and sufficient to model, abstractly, any piece of quantum software. Finally, we provide a small set of examples that showcase the effectiveness of the extension set.
迈向量子软件建模语言
我们制定了量子软件建模语言背后的原则。我们对众所周知的统一建模语言(UML)提出了一个最小的扩展集,使其能够有效地对量子软件进行建模。这些扩展作为一个整体是独立于UML的。因此,它们可以用于扩展任何其他软件建模语言,或者作为全新语言的基础。我们认为,这些扩展对于抽象地对任何量子软件进行建模都是必要和充分的。最后,我们提供了一小组示例来展示扩展集的有效性。
