Generation of Computers
- 1. COC 1: Install and Configure Computer System
- 2. Generation of Computers First Generation: 1946 - 1958 Second Generation: 1959 - 1964 Third Generation: 1965 - 1970 Fourth Generation: 1971 - Today Fifth Generation: Today to Future
- 3. • Alternatively referred to as an electron tube or valve. • developed by John Ambrose Fleming in 1904. First Generation Vacuum Tubes
- 4. Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer First Generation ENIAC Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic ComputerEDVAC Universal Automatic ComputerUNIVAC
- 5. • Computers were very large and very unreliable. • They would heat up and frequently shut down. • Only be used for very basic computations First Generation Characteristics
- 6. • Developed by John Bardeen, Walter Brattain, and William Shockley at the Bell Laboratories on December 23, 1947. • The transistor (short for "transfer resistance") is made up of semiconductors. Second Generation Transistors
- 7. Second Generation IBM 1620 IBM 7904 CDC 1604 CDC 3600 UNIVAC 1108
- 8. • More reliable than Vacuum Tubes. • Primary Memory was stored on the magnetic drums. • They used magnetic disks as secondary devices. Second Generation Characteristics
- 9. • Alternatively referred to as a bare chip, monolithic integrated circuit, or microchip, IC is short for integrated circuit or integrated chip. • The integrated circuit was first introduced as a concept by British radar engineer Geoffrey Dummer on May 7, 1952. Third Generation Integrated Circuits
- 10. Third Generation IBM-360 Series Honeywell-6000 Series Personal Data ProcessorPDP IBM-370/168
- 11. • Much more reliable than 1st and 2nd generation. • Consumed far less power. • The size of the computers eventually became smaller and smaller. Third Generation Characteristics
- 12. • Alternately referred to as a processor, central processor, or CPU. • A computer's CPU handles all instructions it receives from hardware and software running on the computer. Fourth Generation Microprocessors
- 13. Fourth Generation STAR 1000 DEC 10 Super Computer CRAY-X-MP PDP 11
- 14. • Could perform many calculations accurately. • Used in networking. Fourth Generation Characteristics
- 15. • AI is short for artificial intelligence, a term coined by John McCarthy in 1955 at Dartmouth College. • Most people credit Alan Turing to be the father of AI. Fifth Generation Artificial Intelligence
- 16. Fifth Generation Intel P 4 i3 - i10 AMD Athlon
- 17. • The most advanced. • The frontiers of the modern scientific calculations. • Will have the ability to think for themselves. Fifth Generation Characteristics
- 18. ASTI Mulanay CSS Facilitator
