Work History

April 2026

12 Commits • 4 Features

Apr 1, 2026

April 2026 focused on stability, maintainability, and clearer user feedback across qibocal, qibolab, and qibolab_platforms_qrc. Key features delivered include: refactored calibration workflow for robustness and maintainability, oscillator configuration simplification, and project structure cleanup, all aimed at reducing setup errors and improving maintainability. Specifically, the calibration process was modularized by moving the mixer calibration loop into its own function and extracting cluster retrieval into a dedicated function, enhancing readability and testability. Oscillator configuration was streamlined by removing bounds from parameters.json for qibolab 0.2.13, and an unused iqm5q folder was removed to tighten the project structure. Major bugs fixed include improved error handling for calibrate_mixers JSON loading to provide clearer user feedback and prevent crashes, and a data integrity fix to prevent PulseSequence mutation during batching. Additional stability and documentation hygiene improvements were implemented to reduce runtime warnings and improve reliability.
