EACN Workshop 2021 | Network and software architecture for the quantum internet (Wojciech Kozlowski)

Network and software architecture for the quantum internet

The quantum technology revolution brings with it the promise of a quantum internet. A new — quantum — network stack will be needed to account for the fundamentally new properties of quantum entanglement. The first realisations of quantum networks are imminent and research interest in quantum network protocols has started growing. I will present a proposal for a quantum network architecture with a particular focus on the network layer responsible for end-to-end entanglement connectivity and a software architecture based on a programmable quantum data plane.

Thanks so much ..this is going to be there for next 1000 years.... Do you also see hybrid approach where route processing may be classical cpus for control plane ..but the data plane processing done using quantum cpus for high speed.. what do we need to run netsquid simulation.. can we run in laptop.. btw flexiwan is an open-source SDWan ..which can easily integrate to drive qubit / quantum cpu driven dataplane
