Project Chandelier

One of the Chandelier's dilution refrigerators to cool down the quantum processors. The chandelier shape of the refrigerators is how the project got its name.

Project Chandelier is a Janpian Quantum Computer, currently in development by the D-Arithmos Systems Worker's Union, with special support from the Ministry of Industrial Development. The aim of the project is to create a computer capable of directing and controlling the Party's overall economic planning, as well as to develop other synergetic systems based on the utilization of the capacity to reduce the time traditional sorting algorithms require, alongside innovations in reducing computational time complexity. The D-Arithmos Union has claimed that this will assist in the Janpian state's pursuit of space development, via superposition allowing for easier recall in regards to the recollection of information from spaceship databases. Additional claims by the Union are that this will assist in the rapid decryption of public keys, reducing the necessary time from weeks to hours, which it believes could be beneficial to encryption in Janpia and cybersecurity as a whole. The Union has also promised other opportunities in physics and mathematical simulation once the system is operational, although their primary goal as it currently stands is on the economic implications of the system, including the capacity for automated economic decision making.

Origins

D-Arithmos Systems, under the direction of Urescha Toromii, has historically been notable for planning to develop a quantum computer based on the systems of SACHI, the artificial intelligence which controls Darlingtown. They began development on the system following their interlinked discovery of a 6 quibit processor, capable of processing 64 binary states in a singular period of time. This represents a notable advancement in comparison to 6-bit processing systems in current utilization, which would be forced to individually process each state, allowing a quantum system using this processor to be quicker in a variety of ways than regular systems. Research on these systems was in its infancy when D-Arithmos managed to create their first processor, and as such there were no other groups researching it they could turn to for support.

In 2015 the first operational Janpian quantum processor was developed by the union, this initial system being named DASQ-1 (Dusk-1). It would be utilized for the purposes of processing the database of the Kalingrad Medical Institute. After this public release, the processor would garner notable media, scientific, and governmental attention - with the state, most especially the Ministry of Industrial Development, beginning to provide support for the development of quantum compute systems. More specifically, the MID would offer a contract to develop means to replace the necessity of the Ministry of Economics and Trade, with the MID providing the necessary funding, resources, and manpower in exchange for a guarantee that such a system would be developed in under 50 years.

This agreement was signed in August 2016, with the official beginning of the project following swiftly. The new system would initially be named the DASQ-2, but due to the hanging of dilution refrigerators on the ceiling for cooling purposes, it would garner the unofficial (and eventually officially adopted) name Chandelier.

Design

As inherent to the agreement, D-Arithmos would begin development of a system which could utilize the DASQ-1 quantum processor for economic and mathematic planning purposes. It has been determined that maintaining a traditional system of logic gates for computing and function is the most viable means of production, excluding the inherent differences required by superpositioning of 1 and 0.

The dilution refrigeration system which the project received its name from creates and maintains a sub-zero temperature environment, with an average temperature of -273.1415 Celsius, or -459.6547 Fahrenheit. This system was developed by the internal cytotechnology department of D-Arithmos, with support from the Ministry of Industrial Development. (TBA)
