QUARK supports various applications such as the traveling salesperson problem (TSP), the maximum satisfiability (MaxSAT) problem, robot path optimization in the PVC sealing use case as well as new additions like the Maximum Independent Set (MIS), Set Cover Problem (SCP) and Auto Carrier Loading (ACL). It also features different solvers (e.g., simulated /quantum annealing and the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA)), quantum devices (e.g., IonQ and Rigetti), and simulators. It is designed to be easily extendable in all of its components: applications, mappings, solvers, devices, and any other custom modules. - Prerequisites ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Step 1: Install Python 3.12 -^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +**Step 1: Install Python 3.12** -QUARK requires Python 3.12, you need to install this version of Python if you do not already have it installed. +QUARK requires **Python 3.12**.
