Thermodynamics of complexity and pattern manipulation by Vedral, Vlatko, Gu, Mile, Garner, Andrew J. P., Thompson, Jayne

“…Here, we propose a framework to describe pattern manipulators—devices that convert thermodynamic work to patterns or vice versa—and use them to build a “pattern engine” that facilitates a thermodynamic cycle of pattern creation and consumption. We show that the least heat dissipation is achieved by the provably simplest devices, the ones that exhibit desired operational behavior while maintaining the least internal memory. …”
