Moore law , whom prescribe that the quantity of transistors per unit of microcircuit area will double every 1.5-2 years, for a long time determined the rates of semiconductor industry development, but not all experts were assured that this principle will preserve its action in the next decades. Intel company , which thoroughly protects Moore's law, expects to preserve his action up to 2017. IBM Company forecasts, that it will cease to work through one-two generations of technical processes, which corresponds to the period in two-four years. Independent analysts consider that Moore's law will remain up to 2014.
AMD chapter described about its vision of the problem. Mr. Dirk Meyer reported, that Moore's law will preserve its action in the next ten years, but this principle will no longer determine a trend in semiconductor industry development. This quantity of transistors per unit of microcircuit area in the majority of application spheres will be no longer claimed. AMD plans to increase the speed and effectiveness of processors due to the integration in processors of specialized blocks: graphic core, blocks for accelerating work with the interface, net controllers.
Meyer also considers that in ten years for the work with computer the keyboard or mouse will not be necessary - interaction will be achieved through the volumetric screen, which projects the image in the space before the user.
