Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for facilitating quantum computing in a distributed environment. In various embodiments, an application execution request that includes an application logic and an application profile indicating at least one quantum computing resource requirement is received from a requestor. At least one quantum computing resource requirement is compared against a plurality of quantum processing units to confirm that the at least one quantum computing resource requirement is met by the plurality of quantum processing units. An execution set of the plurality of quantum processing units is selected and application logic is assigned for execution on the execution set.

Abstract: A random number generator (RNG) resistant to side channel attacks includes an activation pseudo random number generator (APRNG) having an activation output connected to an activation seed input to provide a next seed to the activation seed input. A second random number generator includes a second seed input, which receives the next seed and a random data output, which outputs random data in accordance with the next seed. An input seed memory is connected to the activation seed input and a feedback connection from the activation output so that the next seed is stored in the input seed memory to be used by the APRNG as the activation seed input at a next startup cycle.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a processing methodology for use in processing information received by a smart card which contains and supports a user personal data profile. Parameters specific to individual user's personal preferences, including travel related parameters and service preferences, are input and stored by the smart card and may be selectively read out and/or transmitted to instantaneously provide the individual's personalized data to various travel related processing systems. The smart card may also be used to present messages to the traveler from various travel services institutions, and also to be programmed by those institutions in order to access certain facilities available to the traveler.
