Grant Award Summary: Unitary Compiler Collection (UCC) Open-Source Ecosystem Development The National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) awarded $298,693 to Unitary Fund on May 1, 2026, for a Phase I project establishing a unified, community-driven open-source compiler ecosystem for quantum computing. The primary deliverables include a comprehensive strategic plan and validated roadmap for a self-sustaining open-source ecosystem centered on the Unitary Compiler Collection (UCC), an open-source Python library designed to provide front-end and back-end agnostic compilation of quantum programs. The project addresses fragmentation in quantum software tools by creating shared technical infrastructure that improves interoperability across incompatible vendor and research-developed platforms. During the twelve-month performance period concluding April 30, 2027, Unitary Fund will conduct structured ecosystem discovery through stakeholder interviews and engagement with industrial and academic partners to identify technical gaps and develop a community-governed roadmap. Key activities include planning and extending shared technical infrastructure with automated benchmarking, profiling capabilities, and modular interfaces for integrations; and growing the contributor and partner community through documentation, onboarding pathways, community calls, events, and integration playbooks for hardware providers. These activities are designed to lower barriers for researchers, educators, and industry developers to contribute and reuse state-of-the-art quantum compilation techniques, thereby accelerating quantum technology adoption and supporting workforce development.
