Next generation communications will require the exploration of alternatives to existing technologies enable end-to-end connections for secure data exchange. 5G presents advanced connectivity opportunities even remote rural areas. However, platforms benefit from complementary methods enhance network capabilities and fulfill trust requirements. Due high throughput links, high-beam directivity, energy efficiency, free-space optics (FSO) is an alternative solution with potential deliver...
Although OpenFlow-based SDN networks make it easier to design and test new protocols, when you think of clean slate architectures, their use is quite limited because the parameterization its flows resides primarily in TCP/IP protocols. Besides, despite many benefits that offers, some aspects have not yet been adequately addressed, such as management plane activities, network startup, options for connecting data control plane. Based on these issues limitations, this work presents a bootstrap...

Distributed quantum computing (DQC) has emerged as a promising approach to overcome the scalability limitations of monolithic processors in terms capability. However, realising full potential DQC requires effective resource allocation. This involves efficiently distributing circuits across network by assigning each circuit an optimal subset processing units (QPUs), based on factors such their computational power and connectivity. In heterogeneous networks with arbitrary topologies...
