Scientific paper

The suggestions of Bekenstein (1981, 1982) and Unruh and Wald (1982) are the bases of the present discussion of the possibility and significance of an upper bound on entropy. It is presently conjectured that the Bekenstein hypothesis is not limited by black hole considerations, and is merely a counting of the maximum number of states in a finite system having a finite energy. A stricter upper bound than that given by Bekenstein is presently obtained, and limitations are noted with respect to its significance.
