Irreversibility and information

This thesis is concerned with the irreversibility of certain information processing operations. The two main results of this thesis concern the recording and erasure of information on a physical memory and the measurement, or acquisition of information by a physical device. These operations are shown to be irreversible, and their degree of irreversibility is related to the amount of information processed.
