Special OQE Seminar
Monday, August 6th
4-5 PM, Haus Room, 36-428
Professor Stephanie Wehner
QuTech, Delft University of Technology
Abtract:
Towards a network stack for quantum networks
In order to realize quantum networks that can support useful applications
it desirable to develop a network stack to enable reliable communication
and control. Such a stack could in principle be subdivided into a number of
layers similar to the classical TCP/IP stack, or OSI model. The special
features of qubits (and quantum entanglement), however, introduce entirely
new design challenges that are not captured by any existing model or
protocol suite.
Here we present initial work towards designing such a stack. In this talk,
we will in particular focus on presenting a link layer protocol, which uses
a class of well known heralded entanglement generation schemes that have
been realized in experiment at the physical layer.
We proceed to introduce the first discrete event simulator for quantum
networks - NetSquid - and use it to investigate the performance of the link
layer protocol as an example. We present initial simulation results for
the link layer protocol based on a system using NV centers in diamond, for
a lab setup as well as the planned test link from Delft to The Hague.
bio:
Stephanie Wehner works as Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Professor at QuTech, Delft
University of Technology. Her passion is communication in all its facets,
and she has written numerous scientific articles in both physics and
computer science. Stephanie is one the founders of QCRYPT, which has become
the largest conference in quantum cryptography. She is Roadmap Leader of
the Quantum Internet and Network Computing efforts at QuTech, and is the
coordinator of the european Quantum Internet Alliance. From 2010 to 2014,
her research group was located at the Centre for Quantum Technologies,
National University of Singapore, where she was first Assistant and later
Dean's Chair Associate Professor. Previously, she was a postdoctoral
scholar at the California Institute of Technology in the group of John
Preskill. In a former life, she worked in the classical internet industry
and as a professional hacker.
