1. Tim Doling:

   In 1951 the French and their allies had complete control of the south (of Vietnam), so all the real revolutionary activity would be happening in the north, they would have a transistor radio (in the tunnels) and they'd be transcribing news of what would be happening in the north.

2. Gordon Moore:

   It sure is nice to be at the right place at the right time, i was very fortunate to get into the semiconductor industry in its infancy. And I had an opportunity to grow from the time where we couldn’t make a single silicon transistor to the time where we put 1.7 billion of them on one chip! It’s been a phenomenal ride.

   They pushed the can down the road. intel’s 14-nanometer chip transistor speed has always been faster than what any foundry can offer even at 7-nanometer.

4. Jennifer Rupp:

   Unlike a transistor, which is based on binary codes, a memristor can have multi-levels. You could have several states, let's say zero, one half, one quarter, one third, and so on, and that gives us a very powerful new perspective on how our computers may develop in the future.
