The first computers used vacuum tubes for circuitry and magnetic drums for memory ,

 and were often enormous , taking up entire rooms . They were very expensive to operate and in addition to using a great deal of electricity , generated a lot of heat , which was often the cause of malfunctions .

 First Generation computers relied on machine language , the lowest - level programming language understood by computers , to perform operations , and they could only solve one problem at a time . Input was based on punched cards and paper tape , and output was printouts . 

The UNIVAC and ENIAC computers are examples of first - generation computing devices . The UNIVAC was the first commercial computer delivered to a business client , the U.S. Census Bureau in 1951 . Transistors replaced vacuum tubes and ushered the second generation transistor was invented in 1947 but did not see widespread use in computers until the lat 1950s . 

The transistor was far superior to the vacuum tube , allowing computers to becom smaller , faster , cheaper , more energy - efficient and more reliable than their first - generatic predecessors . Though the transistor still generated a great deal of heat that subjected th computer to damage , 

it was a vast improvement over the vacuum tube . Second - generatio computers still relied on punched cards for input and printouts for output . 

Second - generation computers moved from cryptic binary machine language to symbol or assembly languages , which allowed programmers to specify instructions in words .

 Hig level programming languages were also being developed at this time , such as early versia of COBOL and FORTRAN . These were also the first computers that stored their instruction memory , which moved from a magnetic drum to magnetic core technology .

The first computers of this generation were developed for the atomic energy industry . Third Generation ( 1964-1971 ) Integrated Circuits Fourth Generation ( 1971 - Present ) Microprocessors The development of the integrated circuit was the hallmark of the third generation of computers . Transistors were miniaturized and placed on silicon chips , called semiconductors , which drastically increased the speed and efficiency of computers , Instead of punched cards and printouts , users interacted with third generation computers through keyboards and monitors and interfaced with an operating system , which allowed the device to run many different applications at one time with a central program that monitored the memory . Computers for the first time became accessible to a mass audience because they were smaller and cheaper than their predecessors The microprocessor brought the fourth generation of computers , as thousands of integra circuits were built onto a single silicon chip . What in the first generation filled an entire ro could now fit in the palm of the hand . The Intel 4004 chip , developed in 1971 , located all components of the computer - from the central processing unit and memory to input / out controls - on a single chip .

In 1981 IBM introduced its first computer for the home user , and in 1984 Apple introduced the Macintosh . Microprocessors also moved out of the realm of desktop computers and into many areas of life as more and more everyday products began to use microprocessors . As these small computers became more powerful , they could be linked together to form networks , which eventually led to the development of the Internet . Fourth generation computers also saw the development of GUIs , the mouse and handheld devices . Fifth Generation ( Present and Beyond ) Artificial Intelligence Fifth generation computing devices , based on artificial intelligence , are still in development . though there are some applications , such as voice recognition , that are being used today . use of parallel processing and superconductors is helping to make artificial intelligence reality . Quantum computation and molecular and nanotechnology will radically change the face of computers in years to come . The goal of fifth - generation computing is to develop devices that respond to natural language input and are capable of learning and self organization . CLASSIFICATION OF COMPUTERS Computers differ based on their data processing abilities . They are classified according to purpose , data handling and functionality . On the basis of size , computers are classified as the following : Super Computer The fastest and most powerful type of computer is the Super computer . Supercomputers are very expensive and are employed for specialized applications that require immense amounts of mathematical calculations . For example , weather forecasting requires a supercomputer . Other uses of supercomputers include animated graphics , fluid dynamic calculations , nuclear energy research , and petroleum exploration . Mainframe Computer It is a very large and expensive computer capable of supporting hundreds or even thousands of users simultaneously . These computers are used in large companies , factories , organizations etc. In these computers 150 users are able to work on one CPU . The mainframes are able to process 1 to 8 bits
