Entropy generation in a model of reversible computation
RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications, Tome 40 (2006) no. 2, pp. 93-105

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.
