A Framework for Distributed Resource Allocation in Quantum Networks
We introduce a distributed resource allocation framework for the Quantum Internet that relies on feedback-based, fully decentralized coordination to serve multiple co-existing applications. We develop quantum network control algorithms under the mathematical framework of Quantum Network Utility Maximization (QNUM), where utility functions quantify network performance by mapping entanglement rate and quality into a joint optimization objective. We then introduce QPrimal-Dual, a decentralized, sc…
