The idea of changing the physics of the universe occurs several places in sci fi. E.g. the Heechee Saga has the Heechee hide themselves behond the event horizon of a black hole after they discover that some civilization appears to have made changes to the universe in order to trigger a big crunch followed by a new big bang with physics more to thir own liking.

Also; "The Last Question" by the same author. Its a short story with a similar premise.

The Xeelee Sequence deals with similarly ambitious plans for the universe.
