QSoftCore is a conceptual model that tries to standardise terminology across the quantum software lifecycle, covering applications, algorithms, deployment configurations, backends, and raw versus mitigated results. It is a framework paper validated against existing literature rather than a working tool or benchmark, so its practical value depends on whether the quantum software community adopts its vocabulary. For engineers and researchers, the main question is whether shared terms make artifacts reusable across studies.
Beihang Team Structures Quantum Computing for Better Software Design

Before now, defining even basic elements of quantum programs, like deployments or raw versus mitigated results, lacked consistent language throughout their entire development lifecycle. This work introduces QSoftCore, a conceptual framework unifying existing quantum computing concepts alongside explicit representations of alternative paradigms and execution details. By offering a shared vocabulary for these previously disparate areas, it aims to foster collaboration within the rapidly evolving field of quantum software engineering.
Current representations of quantum software exhibit varying levels of abstraction. This inconsistency poses challenges for the Quantum Software Engineering (QSE) community. A conceptual model called QSoftCore reorganizes established Quantum Computing (QC) concepts from a software engineering perspective. QSoftCore connects quantum applications, computational problems, algorithms, configurations, programs, and paradigm-specific computation specifications with state evolution, execution…
