论文摘要
在接下来的几年中,量子网络将允许量子应用程序蓬勃发展,这要归功于端到端通过量子折扣在远端主机上提供的新机会。在地理规模上,这将导致量子互联网的曙光。尽管尚未成熟的部署,但研究界已经在开发各种个人启用技术和解决方案。在本文中,在广泛的模拟的指导下,我们采用更广泛的看法,并在量子网络的背景下调查服务质量(QoS)和供应问题,这与由于其某些基本属性而在经典数据网络中的同行截然不同。我们的工作带领了一项新的研究,这将使研究界能够更好地了解量子网络的挑战及其潜在的商业剥削。
In the coming years, quantum networks will allow quantum applications to thrive thanks to the new opportunities offered by end-to-end entanglement of qubits on remote hosts via quantum repeaters. On a geographical scale, this will lead to the dawn of the Quantum Internet. While a full-blown deployment is yet to come, the research community is already working on a variety of individual enabling technologies and solutions. In this paper, with the guidance of extensive simulations, we take a broader view and investigate the problems of Quality of Service (QoS) and provisioning in the context of quantum networks, which are very different from their counterparts in classical data networks due to some of their fundamental properties. Our work leads the way towards a new class of studies that will allow the research community to better understand the challenges of quantum networks and their potential commercial exploitation.
