New Paradigm Technology
The rapid development of computing technology is reflected in the fact that industry has consistently doubled the number of transistors per unit area on a semiconductor wafer every two years. Essentially the basic business model of the semiconductor industry, processor and memory technology has so far continued to roughly fulfil this doubling convention, despite technological barriers and fluctuating economic conditions. Many other aspects of computing technology have followed similar exponential laws, including hard drive space and internet connection speeds. However, the expiry of such rapid development has been forecast on multiple occasions as technological hurdles become increasingly more challenging.
