1. A method of improving reliability of quantum computing operations, the method comprising:
selecting a bubble node of first nodes, wherein the bubble node has connections with associated relatively higher reliabilities than other nodes of the first nodes;
selectively moving a first qubit from a first node of the first nodes to the bubble node;
selectively moving a second qubit from a second node of the first nodes to the bubble node; and
performing a quantum operation at the bubble node using the first qubit and the second qubit.
