Know better about the history of computer development from start to finish started the first generation to the fifth generation. Modern era like now who do not know computers .. ?? I think almost everyone today has to know the computer world. In accordance with what I had written earlier understanding of computer is an electronic calculating machines are fast and can receive digital input information, and then processed in accordance with a program stored in its memory, and generate output information. Understanding these According to Hamacher, The Definition The computer itself is derived from the Latin computare implies counting. Because the extent of cultivated fields of computer science, experts and researchers differ slightly in defining termininologi computer.
The development of the computer world from time to time unstoppable again, but behind it all there is to know whether the beginning or the history of the birth of the computer .. ?? If you do not know about the history of the development of complete computer check out the following reviews:
The first generation computer
The first generation was the ENIAC computer, which is the world's first electronic computer that has a heavy weight of 30 tons, a length of 30 M and 2.4 M and require high electrical power 174 kilowatts. The first generation computers used vacuum tubes (vacuum-tube) made of glass for a signal amplifier. But it still has a lot of problems such as: easy to break, and quickly distribute the heat.
The history of the development of the computer is the first generation to have the following characteristics:
In this generai computer still spend a lot of heat.
Using elektronikanya components made of Vacuum Tubes (Vacuum Tube).
The program is made in machine language (Machine Language), which is the program stored in the computer memory.
Utuk mengoprasikannya also require considerable electrical force.
Capacity provided for the data penyimpannan very small and limited.
The program is still using machine language by using code 0 and 1 in a certain order.
The process is relatively slow.
Have the size or shape of a very large so needed a room that is just wide enough to put this computer.
The main orientation in business applications.
Using the external system of magnetic tape and magnetic disk.
The second generation computer
The history of the development of second-generation computers were born in the 1960s, the invention of the transistor sanggat are affecting the development of the computer at the time. Transistors dapatb replace vacuum tubes. And it is certainly altering all sizes of electrical machines. The transistor used in computers around 1956's. Another invention is the development of magnetic-core memory second generation computers smaller, faster, more reliable, and more energy efficient than the first generation computers.
The development of second generation computers have the following characteristics:
The program can be made with a high-level language (high level language), such as FORTRAN, COBOL, ALGOL.
The main memory capacity sizable
Sirkutinya is a transistor.
The physical size of the computer smaller than the first generation computer
Does not require too much electricity
oriented business and engineering
The process has been fast operation
History of Third Generation Computers
Third generation computer is a very rapid development of computer development there. Computer third generation emerged since the 1965-1971's. Transistors are considered inefficient longer make scientists look for other alternatives and then found in quartz stone (quartz rock). Jack Kilby, an engineer at Texas Instruments, developed the integrated circuit (IC: integrated circuit) in 1958. This is an innovation that could boost the emergence of third-generation computers.
The fourth generation computer
Once the IC is found, the more rapid development of the computer and clear. In 1971 chip INTEL 4004 brought major advances in the world of IC, Intel managed to include all the components in a computer (central processing unit, memory, and control input / output) into a single chip that is very small, if the previous IC is used to perform a specific job only, at this time the microprocessor can be produced and programmed to run all the requirements.
The development of the fourth generation of computers have the following characteristics:
Developed microcomputer which uses a micro processor and shaped semiconductor memory chips for computers.
In this generation of computers already cursing Large Scale Integration (LSI)
Fifth Generation Computer
The history of the development of fifth generation computer is a computer that we use today that this generation is characterized by the emergence: LSI (Large Scale Integration) which is compaction thousands microprocessor into a microprocesor. In addition, it is also marked by the emergence of the microprocessor and semi-conductors. Companies that make the micro-processor include: Intel Corporation, Motorola, Zilog and others. In the market we can see the existence of a microprocessor from Intel with models 4004, 8088, 80286, 80386, 80486, and Pentium. Pentium-4 is the latest production of Intel Corporation are expected to cover all the weaknesses that exist in previous products, in addition, the ability and speed of the Pentium-4 also increased to 2 GHz. The pictures were shown to be much smoother and sharper, in addition to the speed of processing, send or receive picture also becomes faster.
