'''Bühlmann tables''' are [[decompression tables]] developed by Dr. [[Albert Bühlmann]], who did research into [[decompression]] theory at the Laboratory of Hyperbaric Physiology at the University Hospital in [[Zürich]], [[Switzerland]]. The results of Bühlmann's research that began in 1959, was published in a 1983 German book entitled Decompression-Decompression Sickness. The book was regarded as the most complete public reference on decompression calculations and was used soon after in [[dive computer]] [[algorithm]]s. In 1987 the SAA Bühlmann System was developed. This system used the dive tables and a set of rules so that people could dive safely and stay below their [[No Decompression Limit|no-decompression limit]]. The tables are still used today and are very popular, many dive computers still use the ZHL-8 algorithm and many tables are based on the ZHL-16 algorithm.
