QECi

QECi, meaning Quantum Error Correction interface, is being developed by Riverlane to provide a standard way of communicating between the control system and the quantum error correction (QEC) stack in any quantum computer. QECi facilitates efficient data transfer by defining the data format, runtime states and parameters for communicating QEC-specific messages over a standard data connection.

QECi Benefits

QECi Benefits

  • Allows independent upgrades of the control system and QEC stack.  QECi defines the communication protocol so it is easy to upgrade or replace the QEC stack or control system without backward-compatibility issues.
  • Provides long-term interoperability of the QEC stack with your favoured solution.  By providing a common standard for communication, QECi enables the hardware to choose the best solution for their needs without being locked into one supplier. 
  • Enables quantum computer makers to concentrate on scaling their physical and logical qubits. The next major breakthrough in quantum computing will be a machine that performs one million error-free quantum operations (MegaQuOp). QECi will meet the data transfer demands of the MegaQuOp machine – and beyond.

QBlox, a leading qubit control system company, is working with Riverlane to adopt QECi. Together, we are using the QECi to communicate between Riverlane’s QEC stack and Qblox’s control system.
