Computing and Technology

The majority of computing performance improvement in the past decade can be attributed to the shrinking of the width of silicon transistors on chips. From 22 nanometres down to the latest 3 nanometres, the future of silicon transistor shrinking seems uncertain, with the investment required to further shrink transistors increasing exponentially. ...Continue Reading

In the last decade, there have been significant increases in computational power worldwide, thanks to the increased number of devices, as well as the increased complexity of software, especially with the ongoing wave of AI resurgence. In contrast, the entire industry has only increased in power consumption by 6%. This is attributed to node shrinkage. ...Continue Reading
