  • First Generation: Vacuum (1940-1956)

    First Generation: Vacuum (1940-1956)

    The computers they worked with valves and vacuum tubes, they used punched cards for enter data and the programs, also used magnetic drums for store information ans internal instruction. The computer is created (ENIAC)
  • Second Generation: Transistors (1956-1963)

    Second Generation: Transistors (1956-1963)

    in the second generation transistors were used for process information, because of this the computers of the second generation are smaller and consume lesselectricity than the previous
  • Third Generation: Integrated Circuits (1964-1971)

    Third Generation: Integrated Circuits (1964-1971)

    In the third generation begin a to use the integrated circuit or chips, what is a small electronic device made of a semiconductor material. The first integrated circuit was developed in the 1950s by jack Kilby
  • Fourth G eneration: Microprocessors (1971-present)

    Fourth G eneration: Microprocessors (1971-present)

    This generation is caraterized by the integration about the electric components, what the appearance of microprocessor a single integrated circuit, where the basic elements meet. The size of the microprocessor made it possible the creation of personal computers
  • Fifth Generation: Artificial Intelligence (Present and Beyond)

    Fifth Generation: Artificial Intelligence (Present and Beyond)

    its objectiove is the development of new classes of computers that use techniques and technologies of artificial intelligence which are capable of solving ane complex problem
