Fate of Moore's Law tops ISSCC agenda - Stephan Ohr, EE Times

Appropriately for the 50th convocation of the most august of semiconductor conferences, the International Solid-State Circuits Conference will officially commence here on Feb. 10 with an address by Gordon Moore, chairman emeritus of the board of Intel Corp. Moore will survey the history and future of his eponymous 1967 rule of thumb. In a talk titled "No exponential is forever, but forever can be delayed," Moore is expected to trace the path taken by semiconductor integration — and answer conjectures that the yearly doubling of transistors per chip may soon reach its twilight. We have at least another decade of exponential growth, he's expected to argue.
