Quantum Computing Algorithms and Architecture
Abstract
Quantum entanglement is a fundamental resource for distributed quantum computing, enabling complex computations that are intractable for classical computers. However, establishing and maintaining entanglement across a network of nodes presents significant challenges due to decoherence and communication overhead. This paper explores the concept of dynamic entanglement distribution, a novel framework utilizing reinforcement learning to intelligently allocate entanglement among nodes in a distributed computing system, optimizing performance based on workload and resource constraints. We introduce a reinforcement learning agent trained to dynamically adjust entanglement distribution to minimize errors and maximize computational efficiency. The proposed approach addresses key limitations of existing entanglement distribution techniques, offering a more adaptive and intelligent solution for harnessing the power of quantum entanglement in distributed computing. This research aims to develop a practical implementation of a dynamic entanglement distribution strategy, paving the way for more efficient and robust quantum computations.
The results indicate that software engineering work practices are chosen opportunistically, adapted and configured to provide value under the constrains imposed by the startup context.

It is found that roles of MVPs in startups were not fully aware by entrepreneurs, and entrepreneurs should consider a systematic approach to fully explore the value of MVP, as a multiple facet product (MFP).
