End of Moore&#39;s Law: It&#39;s not just about physics
&quot;My thesis here is that it&#39;s time to start planning for the end of Moore&#39;s Law, and that it&#39;s worth pondering how it will end, not just when,&quot; Robert Colwell, director of the Microsystems Technology Office at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ...Scientific American magazine: 2019-01-12

Will Cars Be a MEMS Sensor Bonanza?
OK – quiz time: what do you think the top three upcoming applications for semiconductors are going to be? If one of the categories you named wasn’t “automotive,” then you’re not doing your part in the echo chamber. (And you didn’t read the ...Electronic Engineering Journal: 2019-01-14

RAB-Microfluidics ready for testing in real-world environment
Until now, the emerging field of edge analytics has been focused on the internet of things and being able to process data at the point it’s created by a sensor. Now, thanks to the ability to separate fluids at a micro level on a chip just 22mm by 15mm, a ...Energy Voice: 2019-01-16
