With the birth of Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices and the verification of "quantum supremacy" in random number sampling and boson sampling, more and more fields hope to use quantum computers to solve specific problems, such as aerodynamic design, route allocation, financial option prediction, quantum chemical simulation to find new materials, and the challenge of quantum cryptography to automotive industry security. However, these fields still need to constantly explore quantum algorithms that adapt to the current NISQ machine, so a quantum programming framework that can face multi-scenarios and application needs is required. Therefore, this paper proposes QPanda, an application scenario-oriented quantum programming framework with high-performance simulation. Such as designing quantum chemical simulation algorithms based on it to explore new materials, building a quantum machine learning framework to serve finance, etc. This framework implements high-performance simulation of quantum circuits, a configuration of the fusion processing backend of quantum computers and supercomputers, and compilation and optimization methods of quantum programs for NISQ machines. Finally, the experiment shows that quantum jobs can be executed with high fidelity on the quantum processor using quantum circuit compile and optimized interface and have better simulation performance.
