Generations of Computers

  • First generation

    First generation
    The FIRST computer made
    The first generation laptop was ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator). It had been the primary all-purpose electronic computer that is intended by William Mauchly and John Eckert in 1942. However, the machine was completed in 1945.
  • 2nd Generation

    2nd Generation
    A transistor computer, now often called a second-generation computer, is a computer that uses discrete transistors instead of vacuum tubes.
  • 3rd Generation

    3rd Generation
    Third-generation computers were developed around 1964 to 1971, though different sources contradict each other by one or two years.
  • 4th Generation computers

    4th Generation computers
    The period of the fourth generation was from 1971-to 1980. Computers of fourth-generation used Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits. VLSI circuits having about 5000 transistors and other circuit elements with their associated circuits on a single chip made it possible to have microcomputers of the fourth generation.
  • 5th Generation

    5th Generation
    The Fifth Generation Computer Systems (FGCS) was an initiative by Japan's Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), begun in 1982, to create computers using massively parallel computing and logic programming. It was to be the result of a government/industry research project in Japan during the 1980s.
