 A BRIEF
HISTORY OF COMPUTERS
COMPUTER
• Derived from the Latin word “computare”
which means “to calculate”, “to count”,
“to sum up”, or “to think together”.
• An electronic device that stores and
manipulates information.
• A device that performs computation.

•The father of Computer.
•Designed the Analytical Engine
and that the basic framework of
the computers today are based
on.

Computer can be classified into 3
generations:

•First Generation: 1937 – 1946

•Second Generation: 1947 – 1962

•Third Generation: 1963 – 1980

FIRST GENERATION: 1937-1946
• Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC)
The first electronic digital computer was
built by Dr. John V. Atanasoff and Clifford
Berry in 1937.
• Colossus
Is an electronic computer built for military
in 1943.

 FIRST GENERATION: 1937-1946
• Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC)
The first general-purpose computer was built in 1946.
Weighed 30 tons.
Had 18,000 vacuum tubes which was used for processing.
Could only perform single task.

SECOND GENERATION: 1947 - 1962
• Transistors
Replaced the Vacuum Tubes because they
were more reliable and much faster.

• Universal Automatic Computer (UNIVAC)

The first computer for commercial use was
introduced to the public in 1951.

SECOND GENERATION: 1947 - 1962
• International Business Machine (IBM)
IBM 650 and 700 series computers made their mark on the
Computer world in 1953.

• During this generation, the computers had Memory and

Operating Systems (OS).
• Storage media such as Tape and Disk were used.
• Users used printers for output.

Third Generation: 1963 - 1980
• Jack Kilby
Invented the Integrated Circuit.

• Integrated Circuit (IC)

Replaced Transistors because they were much faster.

With this invention, computers became smaller, more

powerful, more reliable, and they are able to run many
different programs at the same time.

Fourth Generation 1981 - Present
• Microprocessors were used to build Computers.
• Microsoft Disk Operating System (MS-DOS)
Was born in 1980.
• Personal Computer (PC)
Was introduced by IBM in 1981 for home and office use.
Windows Operating Systems was introduced in 1990.
