Quantum Open Architecture (QOA) & Quantum Systems Integration: From Monoliths to Modular Quantum Computing
Today's quantum computers are monoliths — a single vendor designs the chip, builds the control electronics, writes the software, and operates the cloud platform. The customer gets a black box. This is exactly where classical computing was in the 1960s,…
