Third electronic generation was between 1964 to 1971.
Innovations in this era include the use of integrated circuits, or ICs which were invented by Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce . ICs are semiconductor devices with several transistors built into one physical component.
Computers were able to run different applications at same time with a program that control the memory. There were invented a lot of techniques to improve proccesing. For example multiprocessing - execution of multiple processes using more than one processor in a system.
Also computers were smaller in size, cheaper , faster and more reliable.
Some of the most known computers in the third generation are IBM 360, Honeywell-6000 series, CDC 3000, Nokia 4004 and TDC-316.
The most known computer from this generation is…show more content… 4.GENERATION
Basic component of a computer in the fourth generation was a microprocessor.
It it an integrated circuit invented in 1971 by Intel which carries out arithemetic and logic operation and its composed of milions of transistors.
They operate on numbers and symbols represented in the binary system.
The first 4-bit microprocessor 4004 was presented by Intel in 1971 . In the 1960s, processors were constructed out of small and medium ICs each containing from ten to few hundred transistors. The large number of discrete logic gates used more electrical power and produced more heat than a integrated design with fewer ICs.
Some of the fourth generation computers are IBM 4341, DEC 10, STAR 1000, PUP 11 and APPLE II.
5. GENERATION
Fifth generation was the result of a massive government research project in Japan in 1980s.
The main goal of the production in fifth generation was making devices that are capable responding to natural language input, learning and organization shortly called intelligent
