A remarkable thesis prevails in the physics of information, saying that the logical properties
of operations that are carried out by computers determine their physical properties. More …

Abstract The Landauer Principle connects the information theoretic notion of entropy to the
physics of statistical mechanics. When a physical system performs a logical operation that …

Landauer's principle states that the logical irreversibility of an operation, such as erasing
one bit, whatever its physical implementation, necessarily implies its thermodynamical …

Landauer erasure seems to provide a powerful link between thermodynamics and
information processing (logical computation). The only logical operations that require a …

The so-called Landauer-Bennett thesis says that logically irreversible operations (physically
implemented) such as erasure necessarily involve dissipation by at least k ln2 per bit of lost …

We review and investigate the general theory of the thermodynamics of computation, and
derive the fundamental inequalities that set the lower bounds of the work requirement and …

Irreversible information processing cannot be carried out without some inevitable
thermodynamical work cost. This fundamental restriction, known as Landauer's principle, is …

In a recent paper [Stud. Hist. Philos. Mod. Phys. 36, 355 (2005)] it is argued that to properly
understand the thermodynamics of Landauer's principle it is necessary to extend the …

We review the physical foundations of Landauer's Principle, which relates the loss of
information from a computational process to an increase in thermodynamic entropy. Despite …
