Gordon E. Moore, co-founder of Intel Corporation with Robert Noyce in 1968, passed away on Friday at the age of 94. Moore is widely revered in the tech industry for his contributions to processor technology, and is most famously associated with “Moore’s Law.”
Moore’s Law is the observation that processor manufacturers can double the performance of their chips every 18 months. This law has guided the development of computer technology and has been a driving force behind the rapid advancement of computing over the past several decades.
Moore held senior positions at Intel for many years and played a significant role in shaping the direction of the company. His passing is a great loss to the tech community, but his legacy will live on through his contributions to processor technology and his impact on the industry as a whole.
Moore passed away surrounded by his family in Hawaii. While he may no longer be with us, his impact will continue to be felt for many years to come. We extend our deepest condolences to Moore’s family and friends during this difficult time.
