    The document summarizes the five generations of computers from 1946 to present. The first generation used vacuum tubes and were very expensive. The second generation used transistors and were more affordable. The third generation used integrated circuits, making them faster, more reliable and smaller. The fourth generation used microprocessors, adding more power and storage. The fifth generation, still in development, is based on artificial intelligence and parallel processing.

    FIRST GENERATION

    COMPUTER
    1) In 1946, the first computer was made
    with a vacuum tube.

    2) The first generation computers were


    developed by using vacuum tube or
    thermionic valve machine

    3) Therefore the first generation computer


    is also called vacuum tube computers

    4) Therefore, they were very expensive


    and only large organizations were able to
    afford it.
    SECOND
    GENERATION
    COMPUTER
    1) The second generation computers were
    used during 1957-1963.

    2) They are also known as transistor


    computers.

    3) The second generation of computers


    consists of two types of devices, transistors,
    and magnetic core.

    4) The transistors helped to develop a better


    computer than the first generation
    computers consisting of vacuum tubes.
    THIRD
    GENERATION
    COMPUTER
    1) The third generation computer was started
    in 1965 and ended around 1971.

    2) Third generation computers start using


    integrated circuits instead of transistors.

    3) The integrated circuit (IC) is a


    semiconductor material, that contains
    thousands of transistors miniaturized in it.

    4) As compared to previous generations, the


    third generation computers were more
    reliable, fast, efficient, less expensive, and
    smaller in size.
    FOURTH
    GENERATION
    COMPUTER
    1) The period 1972 to 2010 is roughly
    considered as the fourth generation of
    computers.

    2) The fourth generation computers were


    developed by using microprocessor
    technology.

    3) These had millions of transistors and


    other electronic parts on a single chip.

    4) The fourth generation computers have


    much greater computing power and storage
    space.
    FIFTH
    GENERATION
    COMPUTER
    1) In 1982, Japan was invented the FGCS
    (Fifth Generation Computer System).

    2) Computers of this generation are based on


    microelectronic technology with high
    computing power and parallel processing.

    3) This is the most recent and technologically


    advanced computer generation.

    4) Fifth-generation computers, also known


    as modern computers, are still in the
    development stage and are based on artificial
    intelligence.
