Vacuum Tubes
The UNIVAC and ENIAC computers are examples of first generation computing devices .
The ENIAC was the first commercial computer delivered to a business client the U.S census bureau in 1951 -
Period: to
First Generatiom
FIRST GENERATIONS computers relied on the machine language , the lowest level programming language understood by computers , to perform operations , and they could solve one problem at the time
Input was based on the punched cards and paper tape
Output was displayed on printouts -
Transistors
High programming languages were also being developed at this time such as early versions of COBOL and FORTRAN.
These is also the first computers that stored their instructions in the memory which moved from the magnetic drum to magnetic technology -
Period: to
Second Generation
SECOND GENERATION computers still relied on the punched cards for input and printouts for output , Second generation computers moved from cryptic binary machine language to symbolic , or assembly , languages , which allowed programmers to specify instructions in words -
Integrated Circuits
Computers for the first time became accessible to many because they were smaller and cheaper than their predecessor -
Period: to
Third Generations
The development of integrated circuits was the hallmark of third generation of computers
Instead of punched cards and printouts , users interacted with third generation computers through keyboards and monitors. -
Microprocessor
As these small computers became more powerful , they could be linked together to form networks , which eventually led to the development of the internet.
Fourth generation computers also saw the development of the Graphical user Interface (GIU) , the mouse and handheld devices -
Period: to
Fourth Generation
The microprocessor brought the fourth generation of computers as it became possible to build thousands of integrated circuits were built onto a single silicon chip.
The intel 4004 chip, develop in 1091 , located all the components of all computer from the central processing unit and memory to input/output control on a single chip -
Aritificial Intellegence
Quantum computations and molecular and nanotechnology will radically change the face of computers in years to come
The goal of the fifth generation computing is to develop devices that respond to natural language input and are capable of learning and self organization -
Period: to
Fifth Generation
The Fifth Generation computing devices , based on artificial intelligence ,are still in the development , through there are some applications such as voice recognition , that are development being used today
The use of parallel processing and superconductors is helping to make artificial intelligence a reality -
Sixth Generation Computer
Due to its greater clock speed and additional cores, the 6th Generation i5 is generally faster and more potent than the 5th Generation i5. The 6th Gen i5 is better suited for demanding jobs like video editing, 3D modeling, and gaming since it has more cores and a faster clock speed than the 5th Gen i5 -
