Keeping Moore's Law Alive
April 30, 2012
At the GSA silicon summit yesterday the first keynote was by Subramanian Iyer of IBM on Keeping Moore's Law Alive. He started off by asking the question "Is Moore's Law in trouble?" and answered with an equivocal "maybe."
Like some of the other speakers during the day, he pointed out that 28nm will be a long-lived process, since the move to 20nm is not really that compelling (for instance, despite Intel's $12B investment, comparing Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge there is a 4% reduction in power for roughly the same performance).
