As Moore's Law approaches 50, Intel battling to keep up
With advances in chip technology, it's becoming more difficult for Intel to keep up with Moore's Law, but the company's CEO says that remains the key baseline when it comes to adding performance and functionality to its processors."Our job at Intel is to make sure it lives on as long as possible," Brian Krzanich said during a keynote at the Intel investor meeting in Santa Clara, California, Thursday.Next year marks the 50th year anniversary of Moore's Law, and Intel is planning to mark the event, Krzanich said.Moore's Law is based on an observation by Gordon Moore, who co-founded Intel in 1968, that the number of transistors that can be placed on silicon will double every two years, making it possible to improve chip performance and add new functionality. Intel has used Moore's Law, which was offered in a 1965 paper, as a baseline to pack more transistors onto chips, and reduce their size and cost.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More

If your best and brightest have been jumping ship to work for your biggest rival, it's important to know how they're being recruited, why they are being targeted and what you can do to stop it. Here's how your competitors may be poaching your talent.They're Using Professional Search Tactics Savvy companies know that the best talent is often already employed - with their competitors.

Mozilla tells Google, it's not you (anymore), it's Yahoo
Mozilla on Wednesday announced that it had not renewed its lucrative contract with Google, but instead will use Yahoo as Firefox's default search engine in the U.S.And rather than have a global designated search partner -- as it has had with Google in nearly all markets for a decade -- Mozilla will instead strike country-by-country deals.Mozilla implied that the change from one to many search partners would result in better ideological alignments, but said nothing about revenue potential. "In evaluating our search partnerships, our primary consideration was to ensure our strategy aligned with our values of choice and independence, and positions us to innovate and advance our mission in ways that best serve our users and the Web," said Chris Beard, Mozilla's CEO since July.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More
