Intel assures that 'the law of moore' is not dead and that they will prove it

Intel held a five-hour event, in which 100 attendees from startups, venture capital and tech giants savored semiconductor-themed cocktails and detailed explanations of how Moore's Law is not dead.
Intel: 'Moore's Law is not dead, but if you think so, you are stupid. "
The marketing concept behind the meeting was that a celebration of how chip industry updates have fueled progress in technology and society over the past 50 years. It was a party that Intel hosted and Senior Vice President of Silicon Engineering Jim Keller said this evolution was not yet over.
The great title of Keller's talk was: 'Moore's law is not dead, but if you think so, you are stupid, ' he said. He said Intel can keep it going and provide technology companies with more and more computing power.
Moore's Law applied to technology tells us that the complexity of integrated circuits doubles every 24 months. But this is becoming more and more difficult as the nodes decrease in size. Intel assures that it will continue making increasingly complex chips, following Moore's Law.
"I'm not pedantic in that Moore's Law speaks only of the contraction of transistors, I'm interested in the technological trends and the physics and metaphysics around that, " says Keller, adding: "Moore's Law is a collective illusion shared by millions of people ”.

Keller said Sunday that Intel can sustain that illusion, but that smaller transistors will be only part of the how.
Intel highlighted the extreme ultraviolet lithography technology, which can engrave smaller features on chips, and smaller gauge-based cable-based transistor designs that will arrive in the 2020s. I also comment on other techniques for making more complex chips, such as the ability to build chips vertically with the use of layers of transistors or chips on top of each other.
We'll see how they did it, but for now, Intel is hardly designing the first 10-nanometer chips, when AMD will soon launch the first 7-nanometer consumer processors.
Portable applications: what are they and what are they useful for?
Portable applications are software that you can run and use on your computer without taking up additional space.
What is the law of moore and what is it for?
We explain what Moore's Law means and its importance in modern computing. Although there are many people who think that it is already obsolete, we give a brief review of its past, present and future.
