Abstract

In this paper we conduct a tentative study on the requirements and the structure for a quantum computer at the software level. From the software point of view, we describe the methodology used to minimize the decoherence. We construct the quantum instruction set for the higher-level computation. We also study the criteria for designing the quantum programming languages.
