COS 598c - Week 3


Week 3 (Feb. 16) Heating Up

Another seminal paper with an easily stated message, but the technical details are a bit more involved:

[Ben73] C. H. Bennett, "Logical irreversibility of computation", IBM J. Res. Develop., 17:525--532, 1973.

We'll first review the Turing machine model and some basic notions of complexity measures, but hopefully not so much as to bore the cognoscenti in the class. A good general reference for background reading is [Sip96].
