B) Local and Campus-Area Quantum Networking for Next Generation Parallel Quantum Computing

Quantum networking involves effective communication of quantum information among geographically distributed quantum systems, separated by short or long distances. Sources of quantum information in the network communication include qubits used in different forms of quantum computing or output from various quantum sensing devices.

This topic seeks advancements in quantum networking over short distances to enable parallel quantum computing within a building and integration of quantum information sources to storage and quantum computing across a campus area. The interconnection of different co-located quantum computing systems is aimed at increasing the scale of quantum computation (e.g., aggregate number of qubits) and at progressing towards an architecture of flexible connectivity of quantum devices across a laboratory or university campus, potentially composing heterogeneous quantum computing hardware, including broadening of networking from exchange of physical qubits to logical qubits.

Research Area

The specific aim of this topic is to support quantum science needed to effectively scale quantum computing and enable flexible exchanges of coherent quantum information via locally networked heterogeneous quantum systems. Proposals must address one or more research advancements in the aforementioned directions in local and campus-area quantum networking. Research must be aimed at advancing our understanding of aspects, such as core concepts, devices, architectures, integration, and interfaces, that are necessary for a quantum counterpart to the current infrastructures of classical local and campus area networks within the scientific and other facilities.

Extreme-scale science recognizes that disruptive technology changes are occurring across science applications, algorithms, computer architectures and ecosystems. Recent reports point to emerging trends and advances in high-end computing, massive datasets, visualization, and artificial intelligence on increasingly heterogeneous architectures. Significant innovation will be required in the development of effective paradigms and approaches for realizing the full potential of scientific computing from emerging technologies. Proposed research should not focus on a specific science use case, but rather on creating the body of knowledge and understanding that will inform future advances in extreme-scale science. Consequently, the funding from this FOA is not intended to incrementally extend current research in the area of the proposed project. It is expected that the proposed projects will significantly benefit from the exploration of innovative ideas or from the development of unconventional approaches.
