| Jan 21, 2011 at 2:09 | comment | added | Peter Shor | There has been some research on making low-energy computer chips using ideas from reversible computation, where reversible steps take considerably less energy than irreversible steps (although neither came anywhere close to the $kT\,\ln 2$ of Landauer's principle). I don't know whether any companies are currently considering making low-energy chips based on reversibility, though. | |
