الوصف: In this dissertation, we explore how quantum annealing (QA) and its applications behave in an open system setting. We give derivations and numerical recipes for effective parallel simulation methods for time-dependent open dynamics of quantum annealing devices. We consider the weak-coupling limit to an environment and also the case of $1/f$ noise. The stochastic time-dependent quantum trajectories technique can be utilized in studying weak measurements and feedback error correction in quantum annealing. Then we focus on opensystem descriptions of reverse annealing (RA), which is a promising variant and application of quantum annealing. We show that, with various simulation tools, reverse annealing can benefit from the interaction between the annealer and its environment.
