As a step towards a useful and ultra-secure quantum internet, researchers have created an operating system that coordinates connected quantum computers, no matter what hardware they use

The new operating system, QNodeOS, changes this by offering a fully programmable platform for quantum networks that works across multiple types of hardware, making it easier for developers to create quantum network applications.

This breakthrough signifies a pivotal leap from theoretical concepts to tangible technology. “The goal of future quantum networks is to enable new internet applications that are

Quantum Internet Alliance (QIA) researchers at TU Delft, QuTech, University of Innsbruck, INRIA and CNRS recently announced the creation of the first operating system designed for quantum networks: QNodeOS.

Researchers at the QIA have developed the world's first hardware-independent quantum-network operating system, supporting applications written with high-level code.
