Asynchronous Telegate and Teledata Protocols for Distributed Quantum Computing

The cost of distributed quantum operations like the telegate and teledata protocols is high due to latencies from distributing entangled photons and classical information. This paper proposes an extension to the telegate and teledata protocols to allow for asynchronous classical communication which hides the cost of distributed quantum operations. We then discuss the benefits and limitations of these asynchronous protocols and propose a potential way to improve these asynchronous protocols using nonunitary operators. Finally, a quantum network card is described as an example of how asynchronous quantum operations could be used.
