February 3, 2025. As part of the QUARKS project, a pioneering quantum computing laboratory for edge computing applications in next-generation networks has been opened at TU Dresden. The lab consists of three interconnected quantum computers and serves as a test environment for proving the quantum advantage in edge computing in the upcoming 6G era. Edge computing refers to the computation of network functionalities, operations and applications in close proximity to the radio access network to meet the very demanding goals of low latency and resilience. The interplay of quantum and non-quantum computing could be the key solution for the edge.
