We demonstrate that the problem of coupled two-level systems (“qubits”) which are also subject to a generic (sub-)Ohmic dissipative environment belongs to the same class of models as those describing (non)magnetic impurities embedded in strongly correlated systems. A further insight into the generalized single- and two-impurity Bose/Fermi Kondo models enables one to make specific recommendations towards a systematic engineering of highly coherent multiqubit assemblies for potential applications in quantum information processing.
