Study Notes
- Computers have gone through five generations of development.
- First generation computers used vacuum tubes and were large, expensive, and unreliable.
- Second generation computers used transistors and were smaller, faster, and more reliable.
- Third generation computers used integrated circuits and were even smaller and more efficient.
- Fourth generation computers used microprocessors and became much more accessible to the mass audience.
- Fifth generation computers are still in development and are focused on artificial intelligence.
- Voice recognition and parallel processing are examples of fifth generation technology.
- Quantum computation and nanotechnology will play a role in the future of computing.
- The goal of fifth generation computing is to develop devices that can learn and respond to natural language input.
- Each generation of computers has brought significant advancements in size, cost, speed, and efficiency.
