Recently, developments on quantum computers and cloud computing have been actively conducted. Quantum computers have been known to show tremendous computing power and Cloud computing has high accessibility for information and low cost. For quantum computers, quantum error correcting codes are essential. Similarly, cloud computing requires homomorphic encryption to ensure security. These two techniques, which are used for different purposes, are based on similar assumptions. Then, there have been studies to construct quantum homomorphic encryption based on quantum error correction code. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a scheme which can process the homomorphic encryption like quantum computation by modifying the QECCs. Conventional quantum homomorphic encryption schemes based on quantum error correcting codes does not have error correction capability. However, using the proposed scheme, it is possible to process the homomorphic encryption like quantum computation and correct the errors during computation and storage of quantum information unlike the homogeneous encryption scheme with quantum error correction code.

Quantum-dot cellular automata(QCA) is an alternative technology for implementing various computation, high performance, and low power consumption digital circuits at nano scale. In this paper, we propose a new universal gate in QCA. By using the universal gate, we propose a novel XOR gate which is reduced time/hardware complexity. The universal gate can be used to construct all other basic logic gates. Meanwhile, the proposed universal gate is designed by basic cells and a rotated cell. The rotated cell of the proposed universal gate is located at the central of 3-input majority gate structure. In this paper, we propose an XOR gate using three universal gates, although more than five 3-input majority gates are used to design an XOR gate using the 3-input majority gate. The proposed XOR gate is superior to the conventional XOR gate in terms of the total area and the consumed clock because the number of gates are reduced.
