Technology for the Future – Moore’s Law
By: Alex Rugguri, Jessica Miele, Kemi Ajibare, and Matt Price
Processors – Desktops & LaptopsSmaller, stronger, and more energy-efficient
Two major players: Intel and AMD
IntelSandy Bridge (32nm) Ivy Bridge (22nm)USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt
AMDBulldozer Piledriver
3D TransistorsTri-gate transistors replace flat, two-dimensional
streams of transistors with a 3D structure.
The technology will allow Intel to create transistors that are faster (37%), smaller and more power-efficient (50%).
Processors - SmartphonesQuad-core processors
Performance comparable to desktops
Better battery life
Nvidia Tegra 3
QualcommSnapdragon S4
Motorola ATRIX
Moore’s LawThe ability for more powerful chips to be produced at a
cheaper price every eighteen months.
It’s possible because distance between the pathways inside silicon chips gets smaller with each successive generation.
End of Moore’s LawThe shrinking will eventually hit a limit.
The three driving forces are size, heat, and power.
The chip pathways are unable to be shorter than a molecule.
The risk of quantum tunneling occurring.
Technological FootprintAccording to Moore's law there will be a time when we
reach the smallest usable footprint.
It hasn’t occurred yet, but we are getting closer to reaching it.
Some say it will happen in the near future. One person estimated the time will be around 2023.
The Point of Smallest Technological Footprint
The size limitation of a chip.
The size may shrink to a point where it is not functional.
iPad
Smartphone
Raspberry Pi
Laptops
Future of technologyThe future of technology is almost unpredictable
Hard to determine whether ideas & products will be successful or not
How long will a successful product last?
Future Technology PredictionsAll touch screen and hands-on products
Scanning will also gather information
Active workspaces
Meetings will have intelligent participation
Managing from any device
Easier maneuvering of tasks
Future Predictions- Computing
Cloud computing
SASS- form of cloud computing, portable, subscribes to 3rd party software
Supercomputing- hundreds of microprocessors working in unison
Computing cont.Social computing
Ubiquitous computing- information processing is integrated into everyday objects
Grid computing- enables multiple computers working together to solve a problem
Are future products beneficial to the business community?
We think these products will be effective
Products will help businesses survive and thrive
More advanced, faster products will help to complete work & tasks
