NTT pushed for international coordination on network architecture and interoperability in connecting quantum computers with AI infrastructure and data center facilities.
Connecting quantum and classical infrastructure NTT’s proposal identified network architecture, interoperability, synchronization and control, and operational management as areas requiring international dialogue.
The company argued that quantum computing’s value could extend beyond standalone machines through connections among multiple quantum computers, AI infrastructure, and data centers.
NTT presented its optical quantum computing research alongside the Innovative Optical and Wireless Network (IOWN), its initiative to improve network and computing infrastructure efficiency.
Networks cross infrastructure boundaries The quantum discussion sat within a wider debate about infrastructure spanning multiple data centers, cloud platforms, network operators, and countries.
