________ predicted that microprocessor complexity would double approximately every 18 months.

A) Gore
B) Moore
C) Porter
D) Rainer

Moore

Refers to Moore's Law, an observation that the number of transistors on a microchip doubles approximately every two years, though the cost of computers is halved.

Microprocessor Complexity

Refers to the intricacy and sophistication of a microprocessor's design, often measured by the number of transistors and processing capabilities.

Predicted

Foreseen or estimated to occur or be the case in the future based on current data or trends.

  • Gain knowledge about the elementary principles in computing, like Moore's law and the functionalities of processing units.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Moore's Law, proposed by Gordon Moore, co-founder of Intel, predicts that the number of transistors on a microchip doubles about every two years, though it is often cited as 18 months due to the combination of the effect of more transistors and the increase in their speed.
