Post to SlashdotWhen the press people asked Gordon Moore about the next revolution in the IT field, he responded that the revolution is to come in the speech recognition field, when people get the opportunity to communicate with a PC as if it were a normal person. However, it is still quite far away from now: 10-50 years ahead.

The founder of Intel Company and the author of the well-known Moore’s Law, Gordon Moore, announced that the doubling of the number of transistors which he had predicted to happen every 1.5-2 years in the processor industry may get slowed down. He claims that the die size is reduced slower than before that is why the number transistors will double only every 4-5 years in the future. If they use EUV, Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography (with 240nm wave), they will be able to maintain the current tempo for another while, however, the slowing down is inevitable. The current CMOS technology will anyway get limited by the 0.03micron manufacturing technology.
