Generation of Computer

The developments of computers are divided in many forms of generation. Here the generation have been described time wise as will as technologies used.

First Generation

In this first generation of computers, it had been used vacuum tube technology which makes a computer possible to do calculations. In this generation computers are used for scientific applications and programming was done in machine level languages

Second Generation

The second generation of this computer used transistor technology which made the size of the computer a little concise and faster. In this generation the computer is used for scientific applications and Commercial applications.

Third Generation

By the development of a small chip consisting of the capacity of the 300 transistors. These ICs are popularly known as Chips. A single IC has many transistors, registers and capacitors built on a single thin slice of silicon.

Fourth Generation

In this generation of computers, there had been used micro processors inside to work far better comparatively. This is the most reliable among and very short in size to be portable anywhere you want. In this generation computers are used for scientific, commercial, interactive online applications and network applications.

Fifth Generation

This is the generation of computers where computers are assigned automatic intelligence; they use artificial intelligence where they will use their own IQ too to solve a problem  at end. In this generation computers are used for scientific, commercial, interactive online applications, multimedia and network application.
