Before revision:  This process appears to be similar to measurements made by computational devices, as extensively studied in the literature following Maxwell's demon. But at what level do measurements made by cellular systems map onto computational measurements made, for example, by magnetic devices ? Can cells reach the thermodynamic limit of minimal dissipation for a given measurement accuracy, and , if not, what is the cause?
After revision:  This process appears to be similar to measurements or copies in typical computational devices. But is this analogy rigorous ? Can cells reach the thermodynamic limit of minimal dissipation for a given measurement accuracy, and , if not, what is the cause?
