Oxford scientists linked two ion-trap quantum processors via photonic interface into one computer. They achieved first quantum distributed processing using entanglement and optical fibers. Logic gates were teleported between separated qubits. Architecture scales by networking small qubit nodes like supercomputer clusters. Grover's algorithm ran successfully on the distributed system. Sensitive quantum states preserved despite physical separation. Nodes can connect or disconnect without disrupting the whole. Bypasses single-processor qubit packing challenges. Lays groundwork for quantum internet with secure networked processors. Current tech supports distributed quantum computing. Scaling requires further physics and engineering advances.
