The link below has a nice explanation of the generations
First: ~1942 to ~1958
Second: ~1958 to ~1965
Third: ~1964 to ~1973
Fourth: ~1971 onward
Special Ivy Bridge,
smaller transistors used leading to smaller size processor,
3D arrangement of transistors,
faster and efficient computations.
the improvement of technology, Size, Space and Performance, are the main differences between the 1st and 4th generation computers.
first generation used vacuum tubes second generation used transistors
Vacuum tubes are used in first generation computers and transistors are used in second generation computers. Second generation computers are ten times faster than the first generation.
importance of computer
History of computer is divided into 5 generation. The first generation of computer started form 1941 till 1956. In this generation vacuum tubes are used in computers and computers are big enough that one computer could be such big as a whole room.
2ng generation. It used transistors and magnetic core memory
The exact date of 1st generation Computer is May,1941.
