Moore's Law over Supercomputing and How Processing power doubles evey 1 and 1/2 Years
Processing power for various computers and devices from 1956 to 2016 seems to have increased by 1 trillion-fold. It only took Six decades for this to happen.
This was predicted by Gordon Moore long time a go. Gordon Moore was one of the fonder member of Intel corpeartion in USA.
Gordon Moore was working as the director of research and development at Fairchild Semiconductor. He was asked by Electronics Magazine to predict what was going to happen in the semiconductor components industry over the next ten years. In an article published in 1965, Moore observed that the number of components (transistors, resistors, diodes or capacitors)in a dense integrated circuit had doubled approximately every year, and speculated that it would continue to do so for at least the next ten years. He revised the forecast rate to approximately every two years. The prediction has become a target for miniaturization in the semiconductor industry, and has had widespread impact in many areas of technological change.
