This will involve determining how to schedule the switches. It also involves determining whether overall planning and scheduling is done centrally (which is what I expect) or distributed.

Traffic pattern for a multicomputer graph computation

Define a traffic pattern and expected execution schedule (including switching and network traffic) for a large, error-corrected computation on a quantum multicomputer. Application: some graph problem application; most likely, Sara's...

Define a traffic pattern and expected execution schedule (including switching and network traffic) for a large, error-corrected computation on a quantum multicomputer. Application: first target application is distributed form of...

Develop methods for inter-node QEC; potentially shared project with LJ.

Define a multicomputer: - number of nodes - types of nodes (homogeneous, in first machine) and characteristics (no. qubits, gate speed and fidelity, memory lifetime, etc.) - network topologies: fully...

For multicomputer QEC simulations, we need RuleSet definitions and documentation. Let's begin with the Steane [[7,1,3]] code.

We need a torus network topology for quantum multicomputer QEC simulation. Assume link characteristics like the Wallraff superconducting experiment. - [https://arxiv.org/abs/1712.08593](https://arxiv.org/abs/1712.08593)

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** We need a separate node type that is OpticalSwitch (OSW). This will work for metro-area networks, but is most important...

Assuming a micromechanical mirror switch, create a multicomputer topology. When simulated, must handle scheduling properly. Base on: - [https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/1237580](https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/1237580) - [https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.00796](https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.00796) (Details TBD.)

Add a fat tree network topology using #352 switches. Probably want a simple script that generates a fat tree, based on some simple arguments.
