The objective of this paper is to model a hybrid quantum processor capable of executing both classical and quantum instructions. The processor is modeled and simulated using VHDL. It consists of a MIPS R2000 processor with a quantum processing module embedded within it. Additionally, an assembler has been developed capable of interpreting assembly programs modeling quantum algorithms or circuits, containing instructions from both the standard MIPS instruction set as well as the Quantum Assembly (QASM) instruction set. Furthermore, a quantum C++ library has been developed, with methods and classes to encapsulate the QASM instructions so that a programmer may use it to develop a C++ program implementing a quantum algorithm containing both classical and quantum parts.
