People's Daily published an interview with He Tingbo, Huawei board member and president of the semiconductor business unit. He said chips face two key constraints: a necessary constraint — Moore's Law will encounter a physical 'wall' within the next 10 years — and a contingent constraint caused by external environmental limits, meaning Huawei has hit this 'wall' earlier than peers. He said this prompted reflection that the essence of Moore's Law is not about compressing space but delivering fast

People's Daily published an interview with He Tingbo, Huawei board member and president of the semiconductor business unit. He said chips face two key constraints: a necessary constraint — Moore's Law will encounter a physical 'wall' within the next 10 years — and a contingent constraint caused by external environmental limits, meaning Huawei has hit this 'wall' earlier than peers. He said this prompted reflection that the essence of Moore's Law is not about compressing space but delivering faster speed, more functions and more affordable prices. As an analogy, he said a city that must add more parks, schools and hospitals becomes crowded and commuting time increases; one key technical idea in the 'Tao Law' concept is 'logical folding' — stacking one urban area onto another and installing millions of elevators between areas according to logical relationships so direct distance is reduced, time is saved and additional functions can be provided.
