Die Technik entwickelt sich ständig weiter. Beispielsweise wurden Computer im Laufe der Jahrzehnte immer schneller und kleiner, sodass wir nun einen Punkt erreicht haben, an dem es der Aufbau nicht mehr zulässt, sie noch schneller oder noch kleiner zu machen. Prinzipiell existiert zwar das Wissen für die Umsetzung, jedoch schränkt uns die Größe eines Elektrons darin ein, kleinere oder schnellere CPUs zu bauen. Um Abläufe also weiter zu verbessern, müssen wir die Technologie in eine andere
