This tutorial is meant to update / replace the current Real-Time
Benchmarking Qubit Selection Tutorial.

This tutorial shows how to run real-time characterization experiments
and update backend properties to improve qubit selection when mapping a
circuit to the physical qubits on QPU.

The main goal is to demonstrate the benefits of running real-time
characterization experiments before executing a quantum circuit. Users
will learn how to:

- Perform basic characterization experiments in Qiskit to determine the
key properties of a QPU.
- Update QPU error properties with real-time data and use them to
transpile circuits, enabling the selection of the best-performing qubit
layouts before execution on actual hardware.

To highlight the benefits of real-time QPU characterization, the
tutorial establishes a correlation between predicted and measured
hardware performance. This is done by transpiling and running the same
circuit across several randomly selected layouts and comparing their
outcomes. As a case study, we focus on a modified LUCJ circuit, which is
commonly used as an ansatz to estimate the ground-state energy of
correlated electronic systems.
