Tools for Reducing Service Time in Near-Term Quantum Networks
Jake Smith, Thomas R. Beauchamp, Scarlett Gauthier +2
Architectures have been proposed to control entanglement generation in multi-user quantum networks. To allow time for local operations and classical communication at end nodes, the…
Arqon: A suite of control applications enabling a reliable quantum network
Scarlett Gauthier, Thomas R. Beauchamp, Stephanie Wehner
A quantum network's purpose is to enable users to execute applications on end nodes. This requires the network to provide the service of creating entangled links between those node…
White Paper on Quantum Internet Computer Science Research Challenges
Thomas R. Beauchamp, Scarlett Gauthier, Stephanie Wehner
The aim of a quantum network is to enable the generation of end-to-end entangled links between end nodes of the network, so that they can execute quantum network applications. To f…
A Modular Quantum Network Architecture for Integrating Network Scheduling with Local Program Execution
Thomas R. Beauchamp, Hana Jirovská, Hana Jirovská +2
We propose an architecture for scheduling network operations enabling the end-to-end generation of entanglement according to user demand. The main challenge solved by this architec…
An on-demand resource allocation algorithm for a quantum network hub and its performance analysis
Scarlett Gauthier, Thirupathaiah Vasantam, Gayane Vardoyan
To effectively support the execution of quantum network applications for multiple sets of user-controlled quantum nodes, a quantum network must efficiently allocate shared resource…
