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:
“I don’t think of form as a kind of architecture. The architecture is the result of the forming. It is the kinesthetic and visual sense of position and wholeness that puts the thing into the realm of art.”
—Roy Lichtenstein (b. 1923)
“A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
