Entropy generation in a model of reversible computation
We present a model in which, due to the quantum nature of the signals controlling the implementation time of successive unitary computational steps, physical irreversibility appears in the execution of a logically reversible computation.
متن کاملA Design-Based Model of Reversible Computation
We investigate, within the UTP framework of designs, the effect of seeing computation as an essentially reversible process. We describe the theoretical link between reversibility and the minimum power requirements of a computation, and we review Zuliani’s work on Reversible pGCL which brings reversible computing within the scope of formal software development. We propose an alternative formalis...
متن کاملEntropy Generation in Computation and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
Landauer discussed the minimum energy necessary for computation and stated that erasure of information is accompanied by heat generation to the amount of kT ln 2/bit. Modifying the above statement, we claim that erasure of information is accompanied by entropy generation k ln 2/bit. Some new concepts will be introduced in the field of thermodynamics that are implicitly included in our statement...
متن کاملNonlinear Entropy Production in a Reversible Oregonator Model
The entropy production in a non-equilibrium state based on the reversible Oregonator model of the BelousovZhabotinskii (BZ) reaction system has been studied. The reaction affinity and the reaction rate for the individual steps have been calculated by varying the concentrations of key variables in the system. The result shows a linear relationship between the reaction affinity and the reaction r...
متن کاملEntropy generation analysis of non-newtonian fluid in rotational flow
The entropy generation analysis of non-Newtonian fluid in rotational flow between two concentric cylinders is examined when the outer cylinder is fixed and the inner cylinder is revolved with a constant angular speed. The viscosity of non-Newtonian fluid is considered at the same time interdependent on temperature and shear rate. The Nahme law and Carreau equation are used to modeling dependenc...
