The evolution of microprocessors. The number of transistors per chip increases every 2 years or so. However, it can no longer be exploited by the core frequency due to power consumption limits. Before 2000, the increase in the single core clock frequency was the major source of performance increase. Mid-2000 mark a transition towards multi-core processors.
