Moore's Law

An observation made by Gordon Moore in the 1965 paper "Cramming More Components Onto Integrated Circuits" that was later coined by the press as Moore's Law. The observation is that ever since the Integrated Circuit has been developed, the amount of transistors has doubled per square inch. Dr. Gordon Moore admitted that his law is expected to reach its physical limits in the year 2017.
