First Generation of COmputers
The computers in this generation were very difficult and expensive to use. Vacuum tubes were mainly used for circuitry. Often, these computers would take up a lot of room and way up to, if not more than, 30 tons. -
Second Generation of Computers
By this time, the vacuum tubes had been replaced and ushered with Transistors. Which is a device that was made in 1947 made of semiconductor material that opens or closes a cicuitor amplifies a system. these have became a key ingredient for all digital circuits. The first computers of this generation were made from the atomic energy industry. -
Third Generation of Computers
The development of the integrated circuit was the hallmark of the third generation of computers. Transistors were miniaturized and placed on silicon chips, called semiconductors, which drastically increased the speed and efficiency of computers. -
Fourth Generation of Computers
The microprocessor brought the fourth generation of computers, as thousands of integrated circuits were built onto a single silicon chip. What in the first generation filled an entire room could now fit in the palm of the hand. These weren't the most expensive computers but the popularity was increasing. -
Fifth Generation of Computers
These are the final stages of computers so far. The most easy to use computer. Although, these computers can be very expensive, people cannot resist buying them because they are portable and help alot with business and work. These are also very easy to use.The goal of fifth-generation computing is to develop devices that respond to natural language input and are capable of learning and self-organization
