Quantum computing offers immense speedup in performing tasks such as data encryption and searching. The quantum algorithms can be modeled using classical computing devices, however classical computer simulations cannot deal efficiently with the parallelism present in quantum algorithms. The quantum circuit model for quantum algorithms is sufficient to describe the known quantum algorithms. Using analogies between quantum and digital circuits, we design the emulator of quantum algorithms in FPGAs that allows efficient experimentation with new quantum algorithms. This paper concentrates on new techniques for modeling quantum circuits, including the entanglement and probabilistic computing realization, as well as the critical issues in the required precision of computing.
