The following text is copied directly from Wikipedia for testing purpose only:

Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years. Moore's law is an observation and projection of a historical trend. Rather than a law of physics, it is an empirical relationship linked to gains from experience in production.

A biography[1] on Gordon Moore by Thackray et al. was published in 2015.
