量子计算将极大地改变世界范围内的计算格局。量子计算机可以解决复杂的问题，至少在某些情况下，甚至超出了先进的未来经典计算机的能力。除了能够解决这些经典的计算机无法解决的问题之外，量子计算机已经证明了比经典计算更有效地解决某些问题（例如素数分解）的能力。这将给加密技术带来问题，因为加密技术的安全性取决于因素分解的难度。安全、科学和其他应用将需要访问量子计算资源，以获得其独特的能力、速度和经济效益。许多科学应用程序以及其他许多应用程序都使用网格计算来提供诸如可伸缩性和资源访问之类的好处。由于这些应用可能会受益于量子能力，并且一些未来的应用可能需要量子能力，因此确定如何将量子计算系统集成到网格计算环境中至关重要。本文讨论了并网量子计算机的好处以及实现这一目标所需的条件。
Quantum computing is poised to dramatically change the computational landscape, worldwide. Quantum computers can solve complex problems that are, at least in some cases, beyond the ability of even advanced future classicalstyle computers. In addition to being able to solve these classical computer-unsolvable problems, quantum computers have demonstrated a capability to solve some problems (such as prime factoring) much more efficiently than classical computing. This will create problems for encryption techniques, which depend on the difficulty of factoring for their security. Security, scientific, and other applications will require access to quantum computing resources to access their unique capabilities, speed and economic (aggregate computing time cost) benefits. Many scientific applications, as well as numerous other ones, use grid computing to provide benefits such as scalability and resource access. As these applications may benefit from quantum capabilities – and some future applications may require quantum capabilities – identifying how to integrate quantum computing systems into grid computing environments is critical. This paper discusses the benefits of grid-connected quantum computers and what is required to achieve this.
