Abstract

Over the last forty years, Moore's Law has held as a general rule of thumb for the progress made in the Central Processing Unit (CPU) industry. This law has broken down over the last decade as the design of processors using traditional techniques has begun to approach physical limitations. However, despite this set back in the advancement of traditional processing technologies, alternatives have started to present themselves from all corners of industry and academia. Many of these are radical changes to the way processors have been designed and deployed in the past. This paper reviews three promising and contemporary approaches at continuing to increase the performance of tomorrow's CPUs, despite the physical limitations constraining their design today.
