Welcome to the Munich Quantum Toolkit Benchmark Library (MQT Bench)!

Quantum software tools for a wide variety of design tasks on and across different levels of abstraction are crucial for eventually realizing useful quantum applications. This requires practical and relevant benchmarks in order for new software tools or design automation methods to be empirically evaluated and compared to the current state of the art. Since these tools and methods operate on and across different levels of abstraction, it is beneficial having benchmarks consistently available across those levels. The MQT Benchmark Library (MQT Bench) provides a single benchmark suite which offers the same benchmark algorithms on different levels of abstractions. At the moment, MQT Bench comprises around 50,000 benchmark circuits ranging from 2 up to 130 qubits on four abstraction levels.

In order to create a benchmark set according to your needs, simply fill out the form below.

Abstraction Level Selection

Next, abstraction levels for the selected benchmarks must be chosen. There are four available levels ranging from a rather high level description on the algorithm level towards a rather low level description on the target-dependent mapped level. For details, see the level description.
