1. Technology for the
Future – Moore’s Law
By: Alex Rugguri, Jessica Miele, Kemi Ajibare, and Matt Price

2. Processors – Desktops & Laptops
 Smaller, stronger, and more energy-efficient
 Two major players: Intel and AMD
 Intel
 Sandy Bridge (32nm)  Ivy Bridge (22nm)
 USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt
 AMD
 Bulldozer  Piledriver

3. 3D Transistors
 Tri-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%).

4. Processors - Smartphones
 Quad-core processors
 Performance comparable to desktops
 Better battery life
 Nvidia
 Tegra 3
 Qualcomm
 Snapdragon S4

5. Motorola ATRIX

6. Moore’s Law
 The 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.

7. End of Moore’s Law
The 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.

8. Technological Footprint
 According 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.

9. The Point of Smallest
Technological Footprint

10. Smartphone
Laptops
iPad
Raspberry Pi

11. Future of technology
 The future of technology is almost unpredictable
 Hard to determine whether ideas & products will be
successful or not
 How long will a successful product last?

12. Future Technology Predictions
 All 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

13. Future Predictions- Computing
 Cloud computing
 SASS- form of cloud computing, portable, subscribes to 3rd
party software
 Supercomputing- hundreds of microprocessors working in
unison

14. Computing cont.
 Social computing
 Ubiquitous computing- information processing is
integrated into everyday objects
 Grid computing- enables multiple computers working
together to solve a problem

15. 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
