Design Concept:
In the future, we think the development of quantum computers will be the birth of the next singularity in the world. We will face the transformation of a technological era. Therefore, we should start preparing for its arrival from now on. Quantum computing and storage will bring about an unprecedented era of super data to calculate the future of mankind and record the past and present of mankind. Therefore, a huge hardware space will be needed to process these data. However, the space on the ground is insufficient to support the growing population in the future, so we propose the concept of an undersea computing storage center.

Design Thinking:
The quantum computer will be the main computing tool of the future generations and its computing capacity is 100 million times more than that of current computers. Its advantage consists in the rapid processing of large amounts of data and the completion of calculations within a very short time, achieving an effect of simulation and research and development, thereby bringing more benefits and convenience to daily life and society.
With 71% of the earth’s area, the ocean is also huge in capacity. The specific heat capacity of the ocean is much smaller than that of the land. The earth rotation creates ocean currents, providing excellent conditions of heat dissipation and natural electricity generation. Additionally, since there is no large number of natural disasters to guard against, the ocean is an excellent computing environment for quantum computers.
Therefore, taking the submarine architecture as the starting point, we explore the possibility of submarine computing storage centers through in-depth analysis of the principles and hardware of quantum computing and the marine environment.

Architectural Structure:
Take the calculation type of quantum computers as the idea of architecture, create a type of architectural entanglement echoing each other, and then constitute the entire architecture, breaking the previous stacking method of single volume and constructing a complex but logical architecture through the corresponding form of interconnection with but separation from each other.
The distortion of the tower shows strong resistance to hydrostatic pressure, and its geometric shape can resist ocean vortex, but it can also make good use of ocean currents as a source of heat dissipation and power generation.
The section of the massive structure gradually increases from top to bottom, enabling the whole building to maintain a stable but flexible state. The core is composed of a double shell to form a ballast to ensure the stability of the core under the sea.
With three sets of rotating and intertwined massive structures standing at the junction of ocean currents and submarine cables, the undersea computing storage center will become the repeater of the underwater world. According to the definition that quantum cannot be further divided, it will form a single core, and then the modular data storage unit that symbolizing each piece of DNA is fastened to the main structure, surrounding the core to constitute an embodiment of future human genes. Human beings will ultimately entrust all ideas and memories to this computing storage center for computing and processing, so as to establish the appearance of the future world.

Unit Design:
Using the modular design, the round tube serves as the main body, which can be stacked, disassembled, and replaced section by section. The modem is placed inside, and the outside is connected with the structure by fiber optic pipelines, and then connect with the core quantum computer through the transmission line inside the structure. The modular data storage units unify the specifications through modular to offer a faster repair path in design and production.
Enable new computer units can be filled from the sea level in the stacking method of free fall from top to bottom, and the units to be repaired are disassembled under the sea and transported to the sea surface for maintenance, and then thrown back into the sea, reducing the man-made loss of construction and improving convenience.

Quantum Analysis:
Quantum computers transmit information via quantum bits, or qubits, which can exist either as one or zero or both simultaneously. They are the use of quantum phenomena such as superposition and entanglement to perform computation. Quantum computers can do things faster and more efficiently even than the best supercomputer. They will take us to realize our dreams in the future.
