Description and Visualisation of Quantum Circuits with XML

This paper describes software for transformation of XML-based description of quantum circuits into graphical representation. It uses Quantum Markup Language introduced in [8] and produces Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) representation of data. Because XML is a popular data format supported by many programming languages, presented converter does not depend on simulation environment and can be easily connected with existing software for simulation of quantum computing. Problems with visualisation of quantum circuit description point out some limitations of quantum circuits model in practical application e.g. quantum programing languages.
