Implementing no-signaling correlations as a service

Abstract

Abstract We deal with no-signaling correlations that include Bell-type quantum nonlocality. We consider a logical implementation using a trusted central server with encrypted connections to clients. We show that in this way it is possible to implement two-party no-signaling correlations in an asynchronous manner. While from the point of view of physics our approach can be considered as the computer emulation of the results of measurements on entangled particles, from the software engineering point of view it introduces a primitive in communication protocols that can be capable of coordinating agents without revealing the details of their actions. We present an actual implementation in the form of a Web-based application programming interface (RESTful Web API). We demonstrate the use of the API via the simple implementation of the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt game.
