Bridging long distances, where the communication fundamentally suffers from loss, can be achieved by splitting up the distance into segments and positioning so-called quantum repeaters in between. In this thesis, we develop tools to analyse how a large class of quantum repeater schemes will perform when implemented on real hardware suffering from time-dependent noise, in particular imperfect quantum memories for storing quantum information.
