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 …

Quantum-dynamical proofs of dissipation bounds for Landauer erasure are presented, with
emphasis on the crucial connection between conditioning in erasure protocols and …

We review the history of the thermodynamics of information processing, beginning with the
paradox of Maxwell's demon; continuing through the efforts of Szilard, Brillouin, and others …

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 …

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

Landauer's Principle asserts that there is an unavoidable cost in thermodynamic entropy
creation when data is erased. It is usually derived from incorrect assumptions, most notably …

Recent analyses have calculated the minimal thermodynamic work required to perform a
computation pi when two conditions hold: the output of pi is independent of its input (eg, as …

Landauer's principle, often regarded as the basic principle of the thermodynamics of
information processing, holds that any logically irreversible manipulation of information …

Starting from Landauer's slogan “information is physical,” we revise and modify Landauer's
principle stating that the erasure of information has a minimal price in the form of a certain …
