Questions like what is the minimum energy required to perform a computation? What is the ultimate computational speed that a computer can achieve? For how long can a memory last are addressed here, starting from basic physics principles. The book is intended for physicists, engineers, and computer scientists, and it is designed for self-study by researchers who want to enter the field or as the main text for a one semester course at advanced undergraduate or graduate level. The theoretical concepts presented in this book are systematically developed from the very beginning, which only requires basic knowledge in physics and mathematics. 001440425 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 2, 2021). 001440425 650_0 $$aComputer science$$xMathematics. 001440425 650_0 $$aMathematical physics. 001440425 650_6 $$aInformatique$$xMathématiques. 001440425 650_6 $$aPhysique mathématique. 001440425 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001440425 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGammaitoni, Luca.$$tPhysics of computing.$$dCham, Switzerland : Springer, 2021$$z303087107X$$z9783030871079$$w(OCoLC)1264136740 001440425 852__ $$bebk 001440425 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-87108-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001440425 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1440425$$pGLOBAL_SET 001440425 980__ $$aBIB 001440425 980__ $$aEBOOK 001440425 982__ $$aEbook 001440425 983__ $$aOnline 001440425 994__ $$a92$$bISE
