What’s Moore’s Law in computers?

Moore’s Law predicts that the number of transistors on a microchip will double every two years, leading to exponential growth in computer hardware. This trend has remained stable since the 1970s, but may reach its limits between 2017 and 2025. The law also affects the prices of electronics and leads to constant product releases. Tech […]

Moore’s Law: what is it?

Moore’s Law states that the complexity of low-cost semiconductor components doubles every year since 1959. It has been rephrased in terms of transistors and computing power. The law is expected to face a hitch in 2015 due to photolithography reaching its limits. Other alternatives, such as DNA computing and nanocomputing, will have to be used […]
