Method of building a hybrid quantum-classical computing network

A method of building a hybrid quantum-classical computing network, said network including network architecture and network workflow, comprising:

• transforming an application composed of services into a Petri net including both Petri places and Petri transitions between said Petri places,
• any said Petri place corresponding to:
• a first type building block corresponding to any quantum processing unit, said quantum processing unit including quantum processing hardware and quantum processing software, either digital or analog quantum processing unit, which processes a job received on an input port of said unit into a result sent on an output port of said unit;
• or
• a second type building block corresponding to any plugin unit, said plugin unit including plugin hardware and plugin software, which converts a job received on an input port of said unit into another job sent on an output port of said unit and/or a result received on another input port of said unit into another result sent on another output port of said unit,
• any Petri transition corresponding to any connection from an output port of any of said building blocks toward an input port of any other of said building blocks, each output port and input port being formatted so as to make any building block interchangeable with any replacing building block of different structure provided that said replacing building block has same one or more formats at each of its one or more inputs and one or more outputs as the building block it replaces;
• transforming said Petri net into a hybrid quantum-classical computing network, by:
• replacing any building block by its corresponding unit;
• and
• interconnecting all said corresponding units together according to a topography of all said Petri transitions, by replacing any Petri transition by a connection simply transmitting without processing nor converting, from an output port of any of said units toward an input port of any other of said units, thereby getting said hybrid quantum-classical computing network.
