The search for real physical systems that behave like Maxwell's demon has gone on ever since.

从那时开始直到现在，寻找工作机理类似麦克斯韦妖的真正物理系统的试验就一直没有停止过。

The building of a real-life version of "Maxwell's demon" – which can turn information into useful energy – might mean that future nanomachines can be powered purely by information.

建造“麦斯威尔妖”的现实生活版本——它可以把信息转变为有用的能量——意味着未来的毫微级计算机可能纯粹地依靠信息来作为动力。
