Computer The word computer comes from the word“compute’’ which means “to calculate’’. Hence Computer to be a calculating devicethat can perform arithmetic operations at highspeed.A computer is an electronic device whichProcesses information based upon theinstructions provided the deseire output.acomputer can store processes and retrieve data asand when desired.

1st GENRATION(1942-1945)
• These machine use thousands of vacuum tubes
• These vacuum tube are made up of fragile glass device which used filaments as a source of electronics and could control the electronic signals.

2nd GENERATION(1955-1962)
• In this new electronic devices are invented that must called transistors.
• These were more powerful • Less expensive.• They use magnetic disk and tape as a
secondary storage medium.• High-level languages were used in second
genration

3rd generation(1964-1975)
• In this integrated circuits are used.• The were smaller and less expensive.• Consumed less power and produced less heat.• Mini computers were used.• Time sharing operating system were invented
in this generation.

4th generation(1975-1989)
• In this micro processor were used.• Faster smaller and less power consuming then
third generation.• They were general purpose machine.• Graphical user interface used.• hey were use in hTomes and as for personal
use of an human being.

5th generation.(1989-present)
• This generation increase the power of micro processor chip.
• VLSI technology become ULSI.• More user friendly.• Large primary storage capacity.• Provide network facility(lan,man ,wan)
