Generations of Computers
 First Generation The period of first generation : 1942-
1954. Vaccum tube based.
 Second Generation The period of second generation :
1952-1964. Transistor based.
 Third Generation The period of third generation :
1964-1972. Integrated Circuit based.
 Fourth Generation The period of fourth generation :
1972-1990. VLSI microprocessor based.
 Fifth Generation The period of fifth generation : 1990-
onwards.ULSI microprocessor based.
First Generations of Computers
 The period of first generation was 1942-1954.
 First generation of computer started with using vacuum tubes as the basic
components for memory and circuitry for CPU(Central Processing Unit).
 The main features of First Generation are:
 Vacuum tube technology
 Supported Machine language only
 Very costly
Generate lot of heat
 Slow Input/Output device
 Huge size
 Need of A.C
 . Non portable
 Consumed lot of electricity
Some computer of this generation were:
 ENIAC.
 EDVAC
 UNIVAC
 IBM-701
 IBM-650
Second Generations of Computers
 The period of second generation was 1952-1964.
 This generation using the transistor were cheaper, consumed less power,
more compact in size, more reliable and faster than the first generation
machines made of vaccum tubes.
 The main features of Second Generation are:
 Use of transistors
 Reliable as compared to First generation computers
 Smaller size as compared to First generation computers
 Generate less heat as compared to First generation computers
 Consumed less electricity as compared to First generation computers
 Faster than first generation computers
 Still very costly
 A.C. needed
 · Support machine and assmebly languages
Some computers of this generation were:
 IBM 1620
 IBM 7094
 CDC 1604
 CDC 3600
 UNIVAC 1108
Third Generations of Computers
 The period of third generation was 1964-1972.
 The third generation of computer is marked by the use of Integrated
Circuits (IC's) in place of transistors.
 The main features of Third Generation are:
 IC used
 More reliable
 Smaller size
 · Generate less heat
 Faster
 Lesser maintenance
 Still costly
 A.C needed
 Consumed lesser electricity
 Support high level language
Some computer of this generation were:
 IBM-360 series
 Honeywell-6000 series
 PDP(Personal Data Processor)
 IBM-370/168
 TDC-316
Fourth Generations of Computers
 The period of Fourth Generation was 1972-1990.
 The fourth generation of computers is marked by the use of Very Large
Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits.
 The main features of Fourth Generation are:
 VLSI technology used
 Very cheap
 Portable and reliable
 Use of PC's
 Very small size
 Pipeline processing
 No A.C. needed
 Concept of internet was introduced
 Great developments in the fields of networks
 Computers became easily available
Some computer of this generation were:
 DEC 10
 STAR 1000
 PDP 11
 CRAY-1(Super Compute
 CRAY-X-MP(Super Computer
Fifth Generation of Computers
 The period of Fifth Generation is 1990-till date.
 In the fifth generation, the VLSI technology became ULSI (Ultra Large
Scale Integration) technology, resulting in the production of
microprocessor chips having ten million electronic components.
 This generation is based on parallel processing hardware and AI (Artificial
Intelligence) software.
 The main features of Fifth Generation are:
 ULSI technology
 Development of true artificial intelligence
 Development of Natural language processing
 Advancement in Parallel Processing
 Advancement in Superconductor technology
 More user friendly interfaces with multimedia features
 Availability of very powerful and compact computers at cheaper rates
Some computer types of this generation are:
 Desktop
 Laptop
 NoteBook
 UltraBook
