problem

Determine where Moore’s Law still explains computing progress and where architectural specialization has become the stronger driver.

approach

Reviewed historical scaling trends and emerging heterogeneous architectures, then connected those changes to the compute demands of machine learning.

implementation notes

  • Examined Moore’s Law’s impact on technology since 1965, quantified its ongoing relevance, & projected its future applicability, with a focus on heterogeneous architectures, working with PhD candidate to contextualize impact on ML development
