7 Surprising Innovations For The Future Of Computing
Moore's Law posits that the number of transistors on a microprocessor -- and therefore their computing power -- will double every two years. It's held true since Gordon Moore came up with it in 1965, but its imminent end has been predicted for years. As long ago as 2000, the MIT Technology Review raised a warning about the limits of how small and fast silicon technology can get. The thing is, Moore's Law isn't really a law. Moore didn't describe an immutable truth, like gravity or the conservation of momentum.
