Intel co-創立者 Gordon Moore dies 老年の 94
Gordon Moore, the co-創立者 of Intel who 始める，決める the breakneck pace of 進歩 in the 数字表示式の age with a simple 1965 予測 of how quickly engineers would 上げる the capacity of computer 半導体素子s, has died 老年の 94.
Mr Moore died on Friday at his home in Hawaii, によれば Intel and the Gordon and Betty Moore 創立／基礎.
Mr Moore, who held a PhD in chemistry and physics, made his famous 観察 ? now known as “Moore’s 法律” ? three years before he helped start Intel in 1968.
It appeared の中で a number of articles about the 未来 written for the now-消滅した／死んだ Electronics magazine by 専門家s in さまざまな fields.
The 予測, which Mr Moore said he plotted out on graph paper based on what had been happening with 半導体素子s at the time, said the capacity and 複雑さ of 統合するd 回路・連盟s would 二塁打 every year.
厳密に speaking, Mr Moore’s 観察 referred to the 二塁打ing of transistors on a 半導体. But over the years, it has been 適用するd to hard 運動s, computer 監視するs and other electronic 装置s, 持つ／拘留するing that 概略で every 18 months a new 世代 of 製品s makes their 前任者s obsolete.
It became a 基準 for the tech 産業’s 進歩 and 革新.
“It’s the human spirit. It’s what made Silicon Valley,” Carver Mead, a retired California 学校／設ける of 科学（工学）技術 computer scientist who coined the 称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 “Moore’s 法律” in the 早期に 1970s, said in 2005. “It’s the real thing.”
Mr Moore later became known for his philanthropy when he and his wife 設立するd the Gordon and Betty Moore 創立／基礎, which 焦点（を合わせる）s on 環境の 自然保護, science, 患者 care and 事業／計画（する）s in the San Francisco Bay area.
It has 寄付するd more than 5.1 billion dollars to charitable 原因（となる）s since its 設立するing in 2000.
“Those of us who have met and worked with Gordon will forever be 奮起させるd by his 知恵, humility and generosity,” 創立／基礎 大統領，／社長 Harvey Fineberg said in a 声明.
Mr Moore was born in California in 1929. As a boy, he took a liking to chemistry 始める，決めるs.
After getting his PhD from the California 学校／設ける of 科学（工学）技術 in 1954, he worked 簡潔に as a 研究員 at Johns Hopkins University.
His 入ること／参加（者） into microchips began when he went to work for William Shockley, who in 1956 株d the Nobel Prize for physics for his work inventing the transistor.
いっそう少なく than two years later, Mr Moore and seven 同僚s left Shockley 半導体 研究室／実験室 after growing tired of its namesake’s 管理／経営 practices.
The defection by the “traitorous eight” as the group （機の）カム to be called, 工場／植物d the seeds for Silicon Valley’s renegade culture, in which engineers who 同意しないd with their 同僚s did not hesitate to become competitors.
The Shockley defectors in 1957 created Fairchild 半導体, which became one of the first companies to 製造（する） the 統合するd 回路・連盟, a refinement of the transistor.
Fairchild 供給（する）d the 半導体素子s that went into the first computers that 宇宙飛行士s used 船内に 宇宙船.
In 1968, Mr Moore and Robert Noyce, one of the eight engineers who left Shockley, again struck out on their own.
With 500,000 dollars of their own money and the 支援 of 投機・賭ける 資本主義者 Arthur 激しく揺する, they 設立するd Intel, a 指名する based on joining the words “統合するd” and “electronics.”
Mr Moore became Intel’s 長，指導者 (n)役員／(a)執行力のある in 1975. Hi s 任期 as CEO ended in 1987, thought he remained chairman for another 10 years. He was chairman emeritus from 1997 to 2006.
He received the 国家の メダル of 科学（工学）技術 from 大統領 George HW Bush in 1990 and the 大統領の メダル of Freedom from 大統領 George W Bush in 2002.
にもかかわらず his wealth and acclaim, Mr Moore remained known for his modesty. In 2005, he referred to Moore’s 法律 as “a lucky guess that got a lot more publicity than it deserved”.
He is 生き残るd by his wife of 50 years, Betty, sons Kenneth and Steven, and four grandchildren.
