Combined Physical- and Link-Layer Protocols for Quantum Networks

Abstract: Future communication systems are expected to integrate quantum networks to enable highly secure communication and enhance computational capabilities. In quantum networks, communication is accomplished by sharing entanglement between remote locations, which is the basis for most known quantum protocols. Entanglement is a correlation between qubits that is not reproducible with classical means. However, as […]

Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Hybrid Classical–Quantum Serverless Computing Platforms

Abstract: While quantum computing technologies are evolving toward achieving full maturity, hybrid algorithms, such as variational quantum computing, are already emerging as valid candidates to solve practical problems in fields, such as chemistry and operations research. This situation calls for a tighter and better integration of classical and quantum computing infrastructures to improve efficiency and […]

RSFQ All-Digital Programmable Multitone Generator for Quantum Applications

One of the most important and topical challenges of quantum circuits is their scalability. Rapid single flux quantum (RSFQ) technology is at the forefront of replacing current standard CMOS-based control architectures for a number of applications, including quantum computing and quantum sensor arrays. By condensing the control and readout to single-flux-quantum-based on-chip devices that are […]
