Glenn Zorpette · IEEE Spectrum · 2014
In the half century of its existence, IEEE Spectrum has published roughly 3,700 feature-length articles. We covered the fall of the vacuum tube and the rise of the integrated circuit, the decline of the mainframe and the ascent of the personal computer. We wrote about robots, the Internet, lasers and LEDs, code-breaking and compound semiconductors, wireless and weapons, transistors and transhumanism.
