Abstract: A photonic circuit design system includes a photonic circuit design tool to facilitate user inputs to generate a photonic circuit netlist comprising a photonic design component of a photonic circuit design. The system includes a memory system to store the photonic circuit netlist and a component library comprising a plurality of predetermined photonic design components from which the photonic design component is selected. The component library further includes physical data associated with physical characteristics of the plurality of predetermined photonic design components. The system further includes a photonic circuit generator to access the photonic circuit netlist from the memory and the associated photonic design component from the component library based on the photonic circuit netlist and to implement hierarchical algorithm associated with a physical layout and an optical interconnection of the photonic design component in a photonic circuit package based on the physical characteristics to generate the photonic circuit design.

Abstract: In example implementations, an apparatus includes a plurality of nodes, a pump coupled to the plurality of nodes and a connection network. In one example, each one of the plurality of nodes may store a value. The pump provides energy to the each one of the plurality of nodes. The connection network may include a two dimensional array of elements, wherein each group of the two dimensional array of elements is in communication with a respective one of the plurality of nodes, wherein the connection network may be tuned with parameters associated with encoding of an Ising problem. The connection network may process the value stored in each one of the plurality of nodes. The Ising problem may be solved by the value stored in each one of the plurality of nodes at a minimum energy level.
