qiskit.scheduler.schedule_circuit

schedule_circuit(circuit, schedule_config, method=None)

Basic scheduling pass from a circuit to a pulse Schedule, using the backend. If no method is specified, then a basic, as late as possible scheduling pass is performed, i.e. pulses are scheduled to occur as late as possible.

Supported methods:

• 'as_soon_as_possible': Schedule pulses greedily, as early as possible on a qubit resource. alias: 'asap')
• 'as_late_as_possible': Schedule pulses late– keep qubits in the ground state when possible. (alias: 'alap')

Parameters

• circuit (QuantumCircuit) – The quantum circuit to translate.
• schedule_config (ScheduleConfig) – Backend specific parameters used for building the Schedule.
• method (Optional[str]) – The scheduling pass method to use.

Return type

Schedule

Returns

Schedule corresponding to the input circuit.

Raises

QiskitError – If method isn’t recognized.
