Quantum Processing is a technology on the Applied Sciences technology tree with a research cost of 25,000 
. It unlocks a Star System Improvement, needs research in Quantum Substrates or in Persistent Bodies and allows further research in Resilient Infrastructures.
"While the theory of quantum computing is ancient, the mechanical difficulties of preparing a physical machine with the appropriate number of qubits (roughly 10^7) meant that it was a practical impossibility. Now that civilization has reached the point where its technology is capable of this, a boom in the solution of exceedingly complex problems is taking place."
Note[]
For the Sheredyn, this technology also allows further research in Privatized Research.

"Trains change their schedules to arrive when needed. Over-crowded buildings grow extra floors. Windows adapt to maximize ambient light. Systems that handle air and waste scale up and down based on time of day, season, and long-term trends. With sufficiently advanced AI systems and self-aware materials, the self-organizing city is now a possibility.
