The Generations of Computers

The timeline of the history of computers can be studied with reference to five generations. The computer evolution could be noticed by looking into the characteristics of computers and how they evolved over time with technology.

First Generation - 1940-1956. Vacuum tube-based.
Second Generation - 1956-1963. Transistor-based.
Third Generation - 1964-1971. Integrated Circuit based.
Fourth Generation - 1972-1980. VLSI microprocessor-based.
Fifth Generation - 1980-onwards. ULSI microprocessor-based.

The computer was not invented in a day or two but evolved at different times with the contributions of different enthusiasts

The Characteristics of computers

Though computers are machines, there are certain characteristics that differentiate them from other machines.

Limitations of Computers

Anyway, apart from these powerful characteristics, computers being an electronic machine, still shows some considerable limitations.

Number one no heuristics, means, computers do not possess the ability to learn from previous mistakes. This is a main drawback of computers besides their powerful capabilities.
