From the reviews:
“The book serves as an indispensable guide to efficient quantum information processing simulation, but is also a great starting point for both learning the area and pursuing future research. … this is an extremely useful, stimulating and readable book that has been compiled with great care and attention to detail. It is greatly recommended for anyone interested in using or researching computer simulations of quantum information processing systems.” (Zeljko Zilic, Quantum Information Processing, Vol. 12, 2013)Quantum Circuit Simulation covers the fundamentals of linear algebra and introduces basic concepts of quantum physics needed to understand quantum circuits and algorithms. It requires only basic familiarity with algebra, graph algorithms and computer engineering. After introducing necessary background, the authors describe key simulation techniques that have so far been scattered throughout the research literature in physics, computer science, and computer engineering. Quantum Circuit Simulation also illustrates the development of software for quantum simulation by example of the QuIDDPro package, which is freely available and can be used by students of quantum information as a „quantum calculator.“
