# Optimize for target hardware
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the "optimize for target hardware" step of a Qiskit pattern, you take the abstract circuits
|
|
(or operators) produced from the map step and perform a series of optimizations on them. This
|
|
can include mapping the route and layout of the circuit to physical qubit hardware, converting
|
|
to basis gates of the hardware, and reducing the number of operations, all designed to optimize
|
|
the likelihood of success in the later execute step. At this point you might also wish to debug
|
|
your circuits with a simulator before executing on real hardware in the next step.
|
|
|
|
During this step, abstract circuits must be transpiled to Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) circuits.
|
|
An ISA circuit is one that only consists of gates understood by the target hardware (basis gates), and
|
|
any multi-qubit gates needed to obey any connectivity constraints (coupling map). Only ISA circuits
|
|
can be run on IBM® hardware using IBM Qiskit Runtime.
