TLDR
Moore's Law as mentioned in this paper provides a history of Moore's Law through its many changes and reinterpretations, containing possibly a few new ones as well, as well as possibly a new one as well.
Abstract
The 1959 invention of the planar silicon transistor led to the development of the integrated circuit (IC) and the growth trend in IC complexity known as Moore's Law While Moore's observation came in 1965, his original trend line showing a doubling of components per chip each year began with one component in 1959 Thus, we have now experienced 50 years of Moore's Law This paper provides a history of Moore's Law through its many changes and reinterpretations, containing possibly a few new ones as well

Cramming More Components Onto Integrated Circuits

TL;DR: Integrated circuits will lead to such wonders as home computers or at least terminals connected to a central computer, automatic controls for automobiles, and personal portable communications equipment as mentioned in this paper. But the biggest potential lies in the production of large systems.
