[PDF][PDF] Reversibility for efficient computing

MP Frank, TF Knight Jr - 1999 - eng-web1.eng.famu.fsu.edu
Today's computers are based on irreversible logic devices, which have been known to be

Parallel quantum computation and quantum codes

C Moore, M Nilsson - SIAM journal on computing, 2001 - SIAM
We study the class QNC of efficient parallel quantum circuits, the quantum analog of NC. We
exhibit several useful gadgets and prove that various classes of circuits can be parallelized …

The physical limits of computing

MP Frank - Computing in Science & Engineering, 2002 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Many of the fundamental limits on information processing, from thermodynamics, relativity,
and quantum mechanics, are only a few decades away. Novel physically motivated …

[PDF][PDF] Reversible computer engineering and architecture

CJ Vieri - 1999 - dspace.mit.edu
There exists a set of reversible primitive modules that may be combined according to a set of
simple rules to create larger systems, which are themselves reversible primitive modules …

An asynchronous cellular automaton implementing 2-state 2-input 2-output reversed-twin reversible elements

J Lee, F Peper, S Adachi, K Morita - … on Cellular Aotomata for Reseach and …, 2008 - Springer
Reversible computers usually work in a synchronous mode, ie, in the presence of clock
signals, but in the light of the asynchronous nature of microscopic physical phenomena this …
