  2. Limits of computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_of_computation

    The Bekenstein bound limits the amount of information that can be stored within a spherical volume to the entropy of a black hole with the same surface area. Thermodynamics limit the data storage of a system based on its energy, number of particles and particle modes. In practice, it is a stronger bound than the Bekenstein bound.

    Absolutely closed See H-closed Accessible See . Accumulation point See limit point. Alexandrov topology The topology of a space X is an Alexandrov topology (or is finitely generated) if arbitrary intersections of open sets in X are open, or equivalently, if arbitrary unions of closed sets are closed, or, again equivalently, if the open sets are the upper sets of a poset.

  4. Landauer's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landauer's_principle

    Landauer's principle is a physical principle pertaining to a lower theoretical limit of energy consumption of computation.It holds that an irreversible change in information stored in a computer, such as merging two computational paths, dissipates a minimum amount of heat to its surroundings. [1]

  5. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    A fully connected network, complete topology, or full mesh topology is a network topology in which there is a direct link between all pairs of nodes. In a fully connected network with n nodes, there are () direct links. Networks designed with this topology are usually very expensive to set up, but provide a high degree of reliability due to the ...

  6. Circuit topology (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_topology_(electrical)

    These might be described as high-pass and low-pass topologies even though the network topology is identical. A more correct term for these classes of object (that is, a network where the type of component is specified but not the absolute value) is prototype network. Electronic network topology is related to mathematical topology.

  7. Computational topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_topology

    A primary concern of algorithmic topology, as its name suggests, is to develop efficient algorithms for solving problems that arise naturally in fields such as computational geometry, graphics, robotics, social science, structural biology, and chemistry, using methods from computable topology. [1] [2] [3]

  8. Star network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_network

    Star topology in use in a network. A star network is an implementation of a spoke–hub distribution paradigm in computer networks. In a star network, every host is connected to a central hub. In its simplest form, one central hub acts as a conduit to transmit messages. [1] The star network is one of the most common computer network topologies.

  9. Topological space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_space

    In mathematics, a topological space is, roughly speaking, a geometrical space in which closeness is defined but cannot necessarily be measured by a numeric distance.More specifically, a topological space is a set whose elements are called points, along with an additional structure called a topology, which can be defined as a set of neighbourhoods for each point that satisfy some axioms ...
