Chip Design Shifts As Fundamental Laws Run Out Of Steam
By Ann Mutschler - 31 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 12

Dennard scaling is gone, Amdahl's Law is reaching its limit, and Moore's Law is becoming difficult and expensive to follow, particularly as power and performance benefits diminish. And while none of that has reduced opportunities for much faster, lower-power chips, it has significantly shifted the dynamics for their design and manufacturing. Rather than just different process nodes and half ... » read more
