Multicore COTS for Mil/Aero
Processors are rapidly advancing the state of the art in the commercial world, and the mil/aero community is anxious to reap the benefits of the technology. Moore’s Law, which states that the number of transistors placed on an integrated circuit will double every two years, has taken on a slightly different look and feel as we are reach the physical limits of transistor density in a single core. We … Read More

There’s been talk for a while that Moore’s Law is no longer applicable. The law is based on the idea that as transistors get smaller they get better. But with silicon based components the insulating layer in the gates is getting thinner as the transistors become smaller and the all important electrons can find ways through the too thin insulator. Then there’s the doping problem. No it’s nothing to do …
