Thermodynamics of Open Chemical Reaction Networks: Theory and Applications*

After formulating a nonequilibrium thermodynamics for open chemical reaction networks, the theory will be applied to assess the thermodynamics performance of a dissipative self-assembly scheme. Power-efficiency and noise-dissipation trade-offs will be discussed.
