Grosch's law

Japanese: グロッシュの法則(英語表記)Grosch's law
Grosch's law
This is an empirical rule that shows the relationship between computer performance and price. It was proposed around 1953 by H. Grosch, a developer of second-generation computers. It states that "computer performance is proportional to the square of the price."

This law no longer holds true as the price of a CPU becomes roughly proportional to its performance, but it still holds true in areas where input/output devices make a large contribution.

Japanese:
計算機の性能と価格の関係を示す経験則.第二世代計算機の開発者であったグロッシュ(H. Grosch)によって1953年頃提案された.「計算機の性能は価格の二乗に比例する」というものである.

CPUの価格がほぼ性能に比例するようになるとこの法則は成立しなくなってきたが,入出力機器の寄与の大きい分野ではまだこの法則は生きている.
