At the age of 94, Gordon Moore, a co-founder of Intel INTC +1.14%, passed away on Friday. Moore developed a theory that became known as “Moore’s Law” that anticipated the rate of technological advancement.

Moore passed away at his home in Hawaii, according to a statement from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the chipmaker and the Moore family’s nonprofit organization.

In July 1968, Moore and his coworker Robert Noyce established Intel (ticker: INTC). He assumed the office of president in 1975, and he led Intel as chairman and CEO until 1987. He served as chairman through 1997.

Here we given a tweet related to him: 

According to Moore’s hypothesis, “the number of transistors included in a chip will generally double every 24 months,” resulting in improved performance and lower costs over time. In an article he authored in 1965, he made a prediction.
