The observation that the number of transistors built onto a computer chip doubles every 18 months is known as:
A)Moore's Law
B)Gate's Prophesy
C)Doubletake
D)Acceleration

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Moore's Law is a prediction made by Gordon Moore, co-founder of Intel, in 1965 that the number of transistors on a computer chip will double approximately every 18 months, resulting in an exponential increase in computing power. This prediction has been largely accurate over the past several decades and has driven advancements in technology and computing speed. The other options (Gate's Prophesy, Doubletake, Acceleration) are not relevant or recognized concepts in the field of computer science.
