Aliro Simulator
From design to application: the definitive platform for Quantum Network modeling
Aliro Simulator provides a single environment for physics modeling and network planning.
In practice, that means users can:
- Estimate realistic rates, fidelity, latency, and robustness before deployment.
- Compare competing hardware modalities and vendors.
- Test protocol behavior and orchestration logic.
- Identify viable use cases on a proposed network.
- Reduce expenditures and integration risk before hardware purchase.
- Scale from link-level studies to large heterogeneous networks.
- Build an ROI-backed roadmap for pilot and deployment.

Discrete event simulation.
Quantum networks are driven by timed events like photon arrivals, detection clicks, and synchronization windows.
A discrete event framework can reach very fine time resolution and validates designs against real behavior rather than idealized formulas. That matters because timing-sensitive effects may be the determining factor of whether a protocol works at all.
Multiple state computation backends.
Users need different tradeoffs between parameters, such as physical fidelity and scalability.
Multiple backends and state representations make the simulator practical across use cases, from small high-fidelity studies to larger network studies.
Library of quantum and classical device components.
Real deployments are hybrid systems. Generic components let users swap devices, compare vendors, and model mixed environments.
Noise models.
Noise, decoherence, photon loss, drift, and timing misalignment are central to network performance and security. Realistic noise and decoherence modeling is needed for simulated outcomes to mirror physical reality, so teams avoid buying incompatible components.
Networking concept abstractions.
Users need to study devices, links, topologies, entanglement generation/swapping workflows, routing/control behavior, and orchestration. Abstractions are what let users move between a “physics view” and a “network design view.”
Aliro Visualizer.
Aliro Visualizer allows users to graphically investigate the node level performance of a network design and set of protocols.
