Moore's Law

Who is Moore?
Gordon Earle Moore is a co-founder and Chairman Emeritus of Intel Corporation.
He claimed that every two years the number of transistors on a microchip will double approximately.

Moore's Law
Moore's Law states that computer chips are improving at a faster rate as time goes on. In order to allow faster data transfer without using more space or money, more transistors can be squeeze onto a microchip.
TechTarget.com explained that a transistor is responsible for guiding the flow of electricity while amplifying signals. More data can flow if there are more transistor in a microchip. This allow the high amounts of data at a faster rate without more microchips taking up physical space. Because of Moore's Law the computing technology has become faster,more powerful, smaller and more affordable.
