1. A method of operation in a computational system, the method comprising: receiving a problem; and for a number of iterations i to a number n where n is a positive integer: causing a solver to be executed by at least one processor to generate a plurality of samples as potential solutions to the problem; causing, by at least one controller, a performing of at least one post-processing operation on the plurality of samples by at least one post-processing non-quantum processor-based device to generate a set of post-processing results; determining whether to modify the problem based at least in part on the set of post-processing results; upon determining to modify the problem based at least in part on the set of post-processing results, the i th iteration further comprising: causing the problem to be modified; and initiating an (i+1) th iteration.
