The technology disclosed describes a
Quantum Utility Exchange (QUE) framework for managing and trading
Quantum Utility Exchange Traded Resources (QU-ETRs). Providers define
quantum resource packages (with
time windows, usage limits, and resource specifications) and
list them in a Recorded
Database. Entities granted usage rights can trade these packages on the QUE through buy, sell, swap, or bid transactions, with all ownership transfers recorded and expired / consumed packages delisted. A Pending
Database supports offers to buy or sell, searchable with AI / ML tools. The exchange uses secure
blockchain-based communications, encrypted private tunnels, and
verification processes to ensure integrity. Interfaces for providers and consumers enable
package submission, searching, bidding, and downloading through a networked computer
system. QU-ETRs can be traded under flexible contract types (“buy now-use now / later” or swaps), with transaction, validation, and alert mechanisms built into the
system. Overall, the method establishes a secure, structured marketplace for allocating and exchanging
quantum computing resources.
