Physics of computation
open-in-new
<p>The study of the physics of <a href="/facts/Computation/qLsELosq">computation</a> relates to understanding the fundamental <a href="/facts/Limits_of_computation/LJr0wupP">physical limits of computers</a>. This field has led to the investigation of how <a href="/facts/Thermodynamics/q4hIx3yP">thermodynamics</a> limits information processing, the understanding of <a href="/facts/Chaos_theory/LTC17vsF">chaos</a> and <a href="/facts/Dynamical_systems/782gREl5">dynamical systems</a>, and a rapidly growing effort to invent new <a href="/facts/Quantum_computer/nbbcgmvq">quantum computers</a>. </p>
