= Bremermann's limit
{wiki=Bremermann's_limit}
Bremermann's limit is a theoretical maximum on the computational speed of a system, based on the principles of physics, particularly those related to energy and information processing. It is named after Hans Bremermann, who proposed the limit in the context of information theory and quantum mechanics. The limit essentially states that the maximum rate of information processing or computation that can be achieved by a physical system is constrained by the amount of energy available to that system.
