This paper considers the problem of secure packet routing at the maximum achievable rate in a Quantum key distribution (QKD) network. Assume that a QKD protocol generates symmetric private keys for secure communication over each link in a multi-hop network. The quantum key generation process, which is affected by noise, is assumed to be modeled by a stochastic counting process. Packets are first encrypted with the available quantum keys for each hop and then transmitted on a point-to-point basis over the communication links. A fundamental problem that arises in this setting is to design a secure and capacity-achieving routing policy that accounts for the time-varying availability of the quantum keys for encryption and finite link capacities for transmission. In this paper, by combining the QKD protocol with the Universal Max Weight (UMW) routing policy, we design a new secure throughput-optimal routing policy, called Tandem Queue Decomposition (TQD). TQD solves the problem of secure routing efficiently for a wide class of traffic, including unicast, broadcast, and multicast. One of our main contributions in this paper is to show that the problem can be reduced to the usual generalized network flow problem on a transformed network without the key availability constraints. Simulation results show that the proposed policy incurs a substantially smaller delay as compared to the state-of-the-art routing and key management policies. The proof of throughput-optimality of the proposed policy makes use of the Lyapunov stability theory along with a careful treatment of the key-storage dynamics.

Multipath routing in WSN has been a long wish in security scenario where nodes on next-hop may be targeted to compromise. Many proposals of Multipath routing has been proposed in ADHOC Networks but under constrained from keying environment most seems
ignorant. In WSN where crucial data is reported by nodes in deployment area to their securely located Sink, route security has to be guaranteed. Under dynamic load and selective attacks, availability of multiple secure paths is a boon and increases the attacker efforts by many folds. We propose to build a subset of neighbors as our front towards destination node. We also identified forwarders for query by base station. The front is optimally calculated to maintain the security credential and avail multiple paths. According to our knowledge ours is first secure multipath routing protocol for WSN. We established effectiveness of our proposal with mathematical analysis
A quantum network promises to enable long distance quantum communication, and assemble small quantum devices into a large quantum computing cluster. Each network node can thereby be seen as a small few qubit quantum computer. Qubits can be sent over
direct physical links connecting nearby quantum nodes, or by means of teleportation over pre-established entanglement amongst distant network nodes. Such pre-shared entanglement effectively forms a shortcut - a virtual quantum link - which can be used exactly once. Here, we present an abstraction of a quantum network that allows ideas from computer science to be applied to the problem of routing qubits, and manage entanglement in the network. Specifically, we consider a scenario in which each quantum network node can create EPR pairs with its immediate neighbours over a physical connection, and perform entanglement swapping operations in order to create long distance virtual quantum links. We proceed to discuss the features unique to quantum networks, which call for the development of new routing techniques. As an example, we present two simple hierarchical routing schemes for a quantum network of N nodes for a ring and sphere topology. For these topologies we present efficient routing algorithms requiring O(log N) qubits to be stored at each network node, O(polylog N) time and space to perform routing decisions, and O(log N) timesteps to replenish the virtual quantum links in a model of entanglement generation.
Device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) provides the strongest form of secure key exchange, using only the input-output statistics of the devices to achieve information-theoretic security. Although the basic security principles of DIQKD a
re now well-understood, it remains a technical challenge to derive reliable and robust security bounds for advanced DIQKD protocols that go beyond the existing results based on violations of the CHSH inequality. In this Letter, we present a framework based on semi-definite programming that gives reliable lower bounds on the asymptotic secret key rate of any QKD protocol using untrusted devices. In particular, our method can in principle be utilized to find achievable secret key rates for any DIQKD protocol, based on the full input-output probability distribution or any choice of Bell inequality. Our method also extends to other DI cryptographic tasks.
In this paper, we consider the bandwidth-delay-hop constrained routing problem in large-scaled software defined networks. A number of demands, each of which specifies a source vertex and a sink vertex, are required to route in a given network. We are
asked to select a subset of demands, and assign a routing path for each selected demand without violating the hop and delay constraints, while assuring that the bandwidth occupied in each edge is not beyond its capacity. The goal is to maximize the throughput (the total bandwidth) of the selected demands. We develop an efficient heuristic algorithm for the problem, which consists of three main steps, namely, computing feasible paths for each demand, sorting the demands with some priority rules, selecting a path for each demand. The algorithm is tested with networks of actual sizes and topologies, generated by Huawei Technologies Company. The experiments show that the proposed approach outperforms existing algorithms both in throughput and in running time. In the experiments, our algorithm achieves more than 90% of the total bandwidth of the given demands within 10 seconds. Moreover, a large part of our algorithm can run in parallel which largely speeds up the process when using multi-core processors.
Continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) with discrete modulation has received widespread attentions because of its experimental simplicity, lower-cost implementation and ease to multiplex with classical optical communication. Recently,
some inspiring numerical methods have been applied to analyse the security of discrete-modulated CV-QKD against collective attacks, which promises to obtain considerable key rate over one hundred kilometers of fiber distance. However, numerical methods require up to ten minutes to calculate a secure key rate one time using a high-performance personal computer, which means that extracting the real-time secure key rate is impossible for discrete-modulated CV-QKD system. Here, we present a neural network model to quickly predict the secure key rate of homodyne detection discrete-modulated CV-QKD with good accuracy based on experimental parameters and experimental results. With the excess noise of about $0.01$, the speed of our method is improved by about seven orders of magnitude compared to that of the conventional numerical method. Our method can be extended to quickly solve complex security key rate calculation of a variety of other unstructured quantum key distribution protocols.
