Limit to smallness spells obit for Moore’s law

16 Feb 2016

Moore’s Law predicates that computer chips will keep getting smaller at a steady rate – but now they cannot be shrunk much further before the physics fails, and new chip advances will be app-based rather than following the ‘smaller is better’ dictum
