Going Round in Circles: Landauer vs. Norton on the Thermodynamics of Computation
There seems to be a consensus among physicists that there is a connection between information processing and thermodynamics. In particular, Landauer’s Principle (LP) is widely assumed as part of the foundation of information theoretic/computational reasoning in diverse areas of physics including cosmology. It is also often appealed to in discussions about Maxwell’s demon and the status of the S...

15 صفحه اولLandauer Defended: Reply to Norton
Ladyman et al (2007) proposed a model of the implementation of logical operations by physical processes in order to clarify the exact statement of Landauer’s Principle, and then offered a new proof of the latter based on the construction of a thermodynamic cycle, arguing that if Landauer’s Principle were false it would be possible to harness a machine that violated it to produce a violation of ...
متن کاملGoing round in circles: shape effects in the Ebbinghaus illusion.
The Ebbinghaus illusion has traditionally been considered as either a sensory or a cognitive illusion, or some combination of these two. Cognitive contrast explanations take support from the way the illusion varies with the degree of shape similarity between the test and inducing elements; we show, however, that contour interaction explanations may account for this result too. We therefore test...
