    By the use of Housholder transformations it is shown that orthogonal projections onto the range of the adjoint of the information operator are, in a very general sense, optimal algorithms. This allows a unified presentation of worst case optimal algorithms and average case optimal algorithms relative to Gaussian measures on infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces. The choice of optimal information is also discussed.
