Computer History (Ayanna)

  • Period: to

    Early History

    Early history had very huge computers..
  • Engines

    Engines
    In 1832 they had enough parts to make the engines
  • Analytical Machine

    Analytical Machine
    Charles Babbage first described Analytical Machine...
  • Period: to

    First Generation

    The computers had vacuum tubes.
  • Vacuum Tubes

    Vacuum Tubes
    Vacuum tubes were used for the first computers. They can be replaced, but they are heavy and they generate a lot of unwanted heat.
  • Transistors

    Transistors
    The computers were replaced with transistors. The transistors helped the computer to be cheaper, ore reliable, more energy - efficient and faster.
  • Period: to

    2nd Generation

    The 2nd generation computers had transistors
  • Integrated Circuit

    Integrated Circuit
    Integrated Circuit were small in size, they had low weight, they had low power requirement, they had low cost, they had high reliability, it improves the device's performance. But, it has limited power rating, had operations at low voltage, it was quite delicate, and it was low temperature.
  • Period: to

    3rd Generation

    They used integrated circuit.
  • Period: to

    4th Generation

    They used microprocessors
  • Modern Computers

    Modern Computers
    Modern Computers help people create, communicate, learn, it also makes work double time faster. But, poeple start to become lazy and idle, most kids play games instead of doing physical activities, and students sometimes neglect their homework while internet surfing.
