Customizable and Adaptive Quantum Processors: Theory and Applications [Paperback]

The book reviews the concept of quantum unitary, binary and ternary quantum operators as well as the computation implied by each operator. It provides details of the quantum processor, providing its architecture, which is validated via execution simulation of some quantum instructions.
