Brief Architecture of SECOQC Network
SECOQC network architecture can by divided by two parts. Trusted private network and quantum network consisted with QBBs(Quantum Back Bone). Private network is conventional network with end-nodes and a QBB. QBB provides quantum channel communication between QBBs. QBB is consisted with a number of QKD devices that are connected with other QKD devices in 1-to-1 connection.
From this, SECOQC can provide easier registration of new end-node in QKD network, and quick recovery from threatenings on quantum channel links.

Famous quotes containing the words architecture and/or network:
“Poetry is not only dream and vision; it is the skeleton architecture of our lives. It lays the foundations for a future of change, a bridge across our fears of what has never been before.”
—Audre Lorde (1934–1992)
“How have I been able to live so long outside Nature without identifying myself with it? Everything lives, moves, everything corresponds; the magnetic rays, emanating either from myself or from others, cross the limitless chain of created things unimpeded; it is a transparent network that covers the world, and its slender threads communicate themselves by degrees to the planets and stars. Captive now upon earth, I commune with the chorus of the stars who share in my joys and sorrows.”
—Gérard De Nerval (1808–1855)
