The document summarizes the history of early computers. It notes that the first generation of computers used vacuum tubes for storage and magnetic drums for memory. Vacuum tubes were invented by Lee De Forest. It also discusses ENIAC, the first general-purpose electronic computer developed by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, which marked the beginning of the first generation of computers. Finally, it mentions John McCarthy as the father of artificial intelligence and that computers with artificial intelligence are called "knowledge processors" in Japan.

3. The first generation computers used vacuum tubes to store information.
Magnetic drums were used for
memory. Vacuum tubes were invented by Lee De Forest. 4. Computers Artificial intelligence is being used and Japanese call them 'Knowledge Processors'. John McCarthy is considered as the father of artificial intelligence. 5. ENIAC electronic Numerical Integrator and computer was the world's first successful electronic computer, which was developed by two scientists namely JP Eckert and JW Mauchy. It was the beginning of first generation computer. vvvThe Computer is a man-made electronic programmable machine designed to sequentially and automatically carry out a sequence of arithmetic and logical operations. Here, we are giving summary on the Computer Science and Information Technology which has covered all the fundamentals of computers.
Summary on Computer Science and Information Technology
1. The abacus is the first known calculating device. It was invented by the Chinese and is still widely used in the Far East for commercial calculations. Blaise Pascal invented the second mechanical calculator called Pascaline. 2. Charles Babbage is considered as the father of computer because he invented the difference engine and analytical engine. Alan Turing is regarded as the father of modern computer science. 3. The first generation computers used vacuum tubes to store information. Magnetic drums were used for memory.
