Computer generation

                Computer Generation








1st generation

The period of 1st generation was 1942-1954.

The main features are-

*Vaccum tube technology
*Unreliable
*Supported Machine Language Only
*Very Costly
*Generate lot of heat
*Need A.C
*Non Portable
*Consumed lot of Electricity

2nd Generation
The period of second generation was 1952-1964.

The main features are-

*Use of transistor
*Reliable as compared to first generation computer
*Smaller size as compared to first generation
*Consumed less electricity
*Faster than first generation
*Still very Costly
*Support machine and assembly language
*A.C needed 

3rd generation
The period of third generation was1964-1972.

*The main features are-

*Use of integrated circuit
*More reliable
*Smaller size
*Generate less heat
*Faster
*Still costly
*A.C needed
*Consumed lesser electricity

4th generation
The period of fourth generation was 1972-1990.

The main features are-

*Very Large Scale Integrated
*Very cheap
*Portable and reliable
*Very small size
*Pipe line processing
*No A.C needed
*Concept of internet was introduced.
*Great development in the field of network.

5th generation
The period of the fifth generation is 1990-till data.

The main features are-

*Ultra Large Scale Integrated technology
*Development of true artificial intelligence
*Development of Natural Language processing
*Advancement in parallel processing
*Advancement in super conductor technology
*More user friendly interfaces with multimedia features.
*Availability of very powerful






                     Life is short.
        So, start each day with    
            positive thinking.
