Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

4.3.1 blind quantum computing

Course subject(s) Module 4: The power of simulation

Many of you are working in the cloud on a daily basis. Sometimes you are not even aware of the fact that, for instance, your phone saves pictures and data in the cloud. The quantum computer will most likely not be a computer you will have in your house. It will be assessable via the quantum internet. In the next lecture Stephanie talks about the concept of blind quantum computing.

Main takeaways

  • A great application of a quantum internet is that it enables secure access to quantum computers in the cloud.
  • This is known as secure delegated quantum computing or blind quantum computing.
  • Neither the input data, nor the algorithm used need to be revealed in order to obtain the result.
  • You only need a small quantum terminal at home to use the big mainframe far away.
