Abstract

A method includes receiving parameters of each server of a plurality of servers. The parameters of each server are converted from classical to quantum bits. A final quantum state is determined based on a first converted parameter of each server. First intermediate weights of the servers are determined based on the final quantum state. (a) A subsequent final quantum state is determined based on current intermediate weights and a subsequent converted parameter of each server. (b) Subsequent intermediate weights of the servers are determined based on the subsequent final quantum state. Operations (a) and (b) are repeated until all converted parameters of each server are considered and final weights of the servers are determined. The final weights are converted from quantum to classical bits to determine converted weights. Statuses of the servers are determined based on the converted weights. The servers are grouped into server clusters based on the statuses.
