Executing quantum applications with quantum error correction (QEC) faces the gate non-universality problem imposed by the Eastin-Knill theorem. As one resource-time-efficient solution, code switching changes the encoding of logical qubits to implement universal logical gates. Unfortunately, it is still unclear how to perform full-stack fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) based on the changeable logical qubit. Specifically, three critical problems remain unsolved: a) how to implement the dynamic logical qubit on hardware; b) how to determine the appropriate timing for logical qubit varying; c) how to improve the overall system performance for programs of different features. To overcome those design problems, We propose CECQ, to explore the large design space for FTQC based on changeable logical qubits. Experiments on various quantum programs demonstrate the effectiveness of CECQ.
