Physical computation and compositionality. (arXiv:2210.00392v2 [quant-ph] UPDATED)

Developments in quantum computing and, more in general, non-standard
computing systems, represent a clear indication that the very notion of what a
physical computing device is and does should be recast in a rigorous and sound
framework. Physical computing has opened a whole stream of new research aimed
to understand and control how information is processed by several types of
physical devices. Therefore, classical definitions and entire frameworks need
to be adapted in order to fit a broader notion of …
