- New life for Moore's Law
After celebrating its 40th anniversary, Moore's law could stay for another decade thanks to imprint lithography allowing features measuring 6 nanometers: "Predictions about the death of Moore's Law have been wrong several times, too. In 1978, IBM scientists predicted Moore's Law had only 10 years left. When they got to 1988, they said it would end in 10 years again. Moore himself thought it would end at 250-nanometer manufacturing, a landmark the industry passed in 1997". Read the rest here

- Dual Core: Genuine licensing mess...

BEA intends to charge a 25% additional fee for dual-core, rather than doubling the fee. But Oracle and IBM Informix will charge per processor core". Read the story here
