Title
A tale of two laws
Abstract
As Amdahl's law and Moore's law reach their 50th anniversaries, we review the roles they have played in shaping both perception and reality in high-performance computing. Along the way, we also attempt to clarify some misconceptions that have surrounded both of these highly influential but not always fully appreciated ¿laws.¿
