Abstract:
Recent developments in technology for quantum-based repeaters have extended the range available for communicating information enabling the potential for realising quantum networks, distributed systems and a quantum-based internet. Quantum repeaters employing entanglement swapping are currently reported as achieving distances in excess of 100km together with reports of direct peer to peer quantum key distribution also in excess of 100km.
In this discussion, we consider a selection of underlying concepts employed in the development of quantum networks and distributed systems and identify properties and relationships that exist within the underlying structure.
