Jack Copeland Oron Shagrir and Mark Sprevak Churchs thesis Turings limits and Deutschs principle Rossella Lupacchini How to make orthogonal positions parallel: revisiting the quantum parallelism thesis Armond Duwell How is there a physics of information on characterizing physical evolution as information processing Owen J.E. Maroney and Christopher G. Timpson Abstraction representation theory and the natural science of computation Dominic Horsman Viv Kendon and Susan Stepney Physics like models of computation Klaus Sutner Feasible computation: methodological contributions from computational science Robert H.C. Moir Relativistic computation Hajnal Andréka Judit X. Madarsssz Istvssn Németi Péter Németi and Gergely Székely Intension in the physics of computation: lessons from the debate about Landauers principle James Ladyman Maxwells demon does not compute John D. Norton Quantum theory as a principle theory: insights from an information theoretic reconstruction Adam Koberinski and Markus P. Müller Historically philosophers have devoted a great deal of attention to the interrelations between computational concepts and both mathematical concepts and the concepts of intelligence and mind. There has been much less work however on the interrelations between computational concepts and those of the natural sciences. Our goal in putting this edited volume together was to begin to fill in this gap with a book dedicated to the connections between computation and physics and to encourage further work in this area
