  • Publication number: 20240187344
    Abstract: An event is determined on a quantum network. A forecasted budget is determined for one or more entangled qubits for communicating at least a portion of one or more communication packets to a recipient interface over the quantum network with a superdense protocol. One or more first qubits that are respectively entangled with one or more second qubits are retrieved. Transmission of the one or more second qubits to the recipient interface is initiated.

  • Patent number: 12001920
    Abstract: Generating a global snapshot of a quantum computing device is provided herein. In particular, a quantum snapshot service receives a system snapshot configuration with a snapshot parameter associated with a snapshot condition of the quantum computing device. The quantum snapshot service determines a first occurrence of the snapshot condition in relation to operation of the quantum computing device executing at least two quantum services. The quantum snapshot service generates a first global snapshot of the quantum computing device that captures system level performance of the quantum computing device executing the at least two quantum services. The first global snapshot includes a global operating parameter and a global operating tag associated with the global operating condition. The quantum snapshot service sends the first global snapshot to a classical snapshot service.

  • Publication number: 20240177035
    Abstract: A first quantum computing system (QCS) receives from a client computing device a quantum instruction file (QIF). The first QCS accesses a list of resources that identifies resources available on a second QCS and a list of resources that identifies resources available on a third QCS. The first QCS generates, based on the QIF, a representative QCS comprising a subset of the resources available on the second QCS and a subset of the resources available on the third QCS. The first QCS executes a first portion of the QIF on the second QCS to utilize the subset of the resources available on the second QCS and a second portion of the QIF on the third QCS to utilize the subset of the resources available on the third QCS. The first QCS returns to the client computing device a response from the execution of the QIF.

  • Publication number: 20240144071
    Abstract: A first quantum computing device receives a first set of computational information that reflects a utilization of computing resources of a first quantum service in a first quantum computing system that exceeds a computing resources threshold. The computing resources of the first quantum service in the first quantum computing system are altered based on the first set of computational information. The first quantum computing device then determines that the utilization of computing resources of the first quantum service in the first quantum computing system continues to exceed the computing resources threshold. The first quantum computing device causes an initiation of a copy of the first quantum service onto a second quantum computing device in a second quantum computing system.

  • Publication number: 20240144072
    Abstract: Information descriptive of a request to access a quantum computing resource and an intended action associated with the quantum computing resource is obtained from a quantum client device by a quantum computing system. Based at least in part on the information, a quantum computing resource access request is sent to a quantum access granting entity, wherein the quantum computing resource access request comprises information descriptive of the quantum computing resource, an intended action, and an identity of the quantum client device. A request to assign a preliminary lock to the quantum computing resource for the quantum client device is provided. Responsive to sending the quantum computing resource access request, information indicative of a decision to grant quantum computing resource access to the quantum client device is received from the quantum access granting entity.

  • Publication number: 20240134693
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for a quantum implementation of a cluster management service that uses quantum cluster management services to federate the cluster management service across multiple quantum machines. A request from a client to create a cluster in which a workload is to be deployed may be received at a classical cluster management service. The request may be decomposed to determine a set of workload parameters and resource availability information for each of a set of quantum machines may be determined using a set of quantum cluster management services, each of which may execute on a respective quantum machine. The workload parameters are compared to the resource availability information for each of the set of quantum machines to determine whether the workload can be executed on a single quantum machine of the set of quantum machines. The workload may be deployed on one or more of the set of quantum machines based on the comparison.

  • Publication number: 20240126717
    Abstract: One embodiment includes a method for quantum-mechanically archiving data. The method includes receiving, by a quantum computing device (QD), a request to store the data. The data may be associated with a file identifier (ID). A set of bits encodes the data in a classical encoding and the set of bits has a first cardinality. In response to receiving the request to store the data, generating, the QD may generate, based on a superdense coding protocol, a quantum-mechanical (QM) encoding of the data via a set of qubits that has a second cardinality that is less than the first cardinality. The QD may cause a generation of a data structure that encodes an association between the file ID and the set of qubits. The QD may further cause a storage of the data structure.

  • Patent number: 11948046
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for seamlessly switching between a classical controller and a quantum controller that both implement an application, based on which controller is better suited for processing a received request for functionality of the application. The classical controller and the quantum controller both implement the same logic for the application, and the classical controller interfaces with a model and a view as part of a model, view and controller (MVC) framework. A Quantum Model View Controller (QMVC) service determines whether the request is to be processed by the classical or quantum controller. In response to determining that the request is to be processed by the quantum controller, the QMVC service diverts the request to the quantum controller and provide a first application program interface (API) gateway between the quantum controller and the model and a second API gateway between the quantum controller and the view.
