Recorded 19 February 2026. Athena Caesura of PsiQuantum presents "Deeper Compilation in the Active Volume Architecture" at IPAM's Bridging the Gap Between NISQ and FTQC Workshop. Abstract: Resource estimates for the active volume architecture have traditionally been derived by counting the active volume and number of qubits, then substituting these values into a closed-form expression. In this talk, I present software that produces more accurate resource estimates by explicitly scheduling operations. By explicitly assigning qubits to a given task at each logical cycle, the software captures the costs of bridging, stale states, and dynamic memory usage. Using this approach, we achieved a 5× speedup on an EFTQC Fermi–Hubbard simulation task compared with estimates produced by closed-form expressions.
