In 1965, Intel co-founder Gordon Moore, in ""Cramming more
components onto Integrated Circuits"" in Electronics Magazine
(April 19, 1965), made the observation that, in the history of
computing hardware, the number of transistors on integrated
circuits doubles approximately every two years. Since its inception
in 1965 until recent times, this law has been used in the
semiconductor industry to guide investments for long-term planning
as well as to set targets for research and development. These
investments have helped in a productive utilization of wealth,
which created more employment opportunities for semiconductor
industry professionals. In this way, the development of Moore's Law
has helped sustain the progress of today's knowledge-based economy.
While Moore's Law has, on one hand, helped drive investments toward
technological and economic growth, thereby benefiting the consumers
with more powerful electronic gadgets, Moore's Law has indirectly
also helped to fuel other innovations in the global economy.
However, the Law of diminishing returns is now questioning the
sustainability of further evolution of Moore's Law and its ability
to sustain the progress of today's knowledge based economy. The
lack of liquidity in the global economy is truly bringing the
entire industry to a standstill and the dark clouds of an economic
depression are hovering over the global economy. What factors have
been ignored by the global semiconductor industry leading to a
demise of Moore's Law? Do the existing business models prevalent in
the semiconductor industry pose any problems? Have supply chains
made that progress unsustainable? In today's globalized world, have
businesses been able to sustain national interests while driving
the progress of Moore's Law? Could the semiconductor industry help
the entire global economy move toward a radiance of the new crimson
dawn, beyond the veil of the darkest night by sustaining the
progress of Moore's Law? The entire semiconductor industry is now
clamoring for a fresh approach to overcome existing barriers to the
progress of Moore's Law, and this book delivers just that. Moore's
Law can easily continue for the foreseeable future if the chip
manufacturing industry becomes sustainable by having a balanced
economy. The sustainable progress of Moore's Law advocates the
""heresy"" of transforming the current economic orthodoxy of
monopoly capitalism into free-market capitalism. The next big thing
that everybody is looking forward to after mobile revolution is the
""Internet of Things"" (IoT) revolution. While some analysts
forecast that the IoT market would achieve 5.4 billion connections
worldwide by 2020, the poor consumer purchasing power in global
economy makes this forecast truly questionable. Sustaining Moore's
Law presents a blueprint for sustaining the progress of Moore's Law
to bring about IoT Revolution in the global economy.
