The Price of Remembering: A Calibrated Energy Law for Computation
Where does a computer's energy go? Mostly into keeping, not into computing. A bit held in fast storage draws power for every second it stays there, and it costs energy again each time it moves between storage levels. We call the first cost \emph{rent} and the second \emph{fare}, and we state one law
