3. Computer Generation
Punch Card System
• Hollerith Cards/IBM Cards
• Herman Hollerith
• Census
• IBM
• Paper cards where holes may be
punched by hand or machine to
represent computer data and
instructions.
5. Computer Generation
TURING MACHINE
• Allan Turing
• An abstract
computational
model that performs
computations by reading
and writing to an infinite
tape
6. Computer Generation
ATANASOFF-BERRY
COMPUTER
• John Vincent Atanasoff & Clifford
Berry
• The first automatic electronic digital
computer.
• Created with the specific purpose of
solving a system of linear equations -
could solve 29 equations
simultaneously
8. 1st VACUUM TUBES
Generation 1946 - 1959
• Vacuum tubes for circuitry
• Magnetic drums for memory
• Relies on machine language
(lowest_x0002_level programming)
• Punch cards, paper tape, and magnetic
• tape was used as input and output
• devices.
• UNIVAC, ENIAC, IBM 701, Manchester
• Mark 1
9. 1st VACUUM TUBES
Generation 1946 - 1959
• Large.
• Expensive
• It could store only a small amount
of information.
• Large amount of energy
consumption.
• Frequent maintenance.
10. 2nd TRANSISTORS
Generation 1959 - 1965
• Smaller, faster, cheaper, more
energy_x0002_efficient and more reliable
(compared to vacuum tubes)
• • Uses punch cards for input and output
• • COBOL (Common Business Oriented
• Language) and FORTRAN (Formula
• Translation) as programming language.
12. 3rd INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
Generation 1965 - 1971
• invented by Jack Kilby
• Semiconductors
• Keyboard, monitor
• Operating system that allows to
run many applications at the
same time.
• Cheaper and available in market.
14. 4th MICROPROCESSOR
Generation 1971 - 2010
• Central Processing Unit
• Smaller, faster, cheaper, efficient
• Could link to networks
• Graphic User Interface
• Mouse
• Portable devices
15. Graphic User Interface
A form of user interface
that allowsusers to
interact with electronic
devices through graphical
icons and audio indicator
such as primary notation,
instead of text-based user
interfaces, typed
command labels or text
navigation.
16. Character User Interface
A method for
interacting with the
computer that
displays a fixed set
of rows and columns
on screen with
monospaced
characters and a
single font,
18. 5th Artificial Intelligence
Generation 2010 - present
• Still in development
• A wide- ranging branch of computer science
concerned
with building smart machines
capable of performing tasks
that typically require human
intelligence.
20. "In a world driven by the power of computer
generation, we witness the magic of technology
shaping our reality, creating new possibilities, and
transforming our lives with every line of code."
