For low-power design, reversible logic offers signi?cant advantages since zero power dissipation will only be possible if computation is reversible. Furthermore, quantum computation pro?ts from enhancements in this area, because every quantum circuit is inherently reversible and thus requires reversible descriptions.
From the reviews: "This is a book about the present and the future of computing machines. ... At the end of the book a list of 144 refs are included giving the reader the possibility to know more than there are in the book. ... the book represents an excellent text at a post-graduate level aiming to give to the researchers the basic ideas and techniques in this new emerging domain."
