SHK: Quantum Network Simulation

Quantum Network Simulation

Quantum Internet is a network that allows the communication between quantum computers. Such communication require new infrastructure and protocols different from that used for the classical internet. Thus, the direction towards developing new protocols and methods for quantum internet has recently gained a lot of importance and attention. Quantum network simulators are used to simulate the quantum internet and evaluate and compare the new ideas and protocols.
