The Quantum Internet
Many organized efforts across the world are racing to realize the "Quantum Internet" -- the internet of the future that is upgraded to provide an additional service: that of reliably transmitting qubits between distant users. Just like the internet's classical data communications service, the quantum communications service must reliably support many user groups, and support diverse and dynamic applications---each with its unique requirements on the quality of service for transmission of qubits, e.g., rate, latency, fidelity etc.
