Question

What are the features of architecture of the fourth generation computers and similarities and differences of the latest generations?

Answer 1

Fourth generation computers are established by the fabrication of microprocessors having thousands of IC's.The technlogy of IC's increased quickly.The LSI VLSI circuit is outlined whih decreases the computer size.microprocessors size is generally one square inch. Air conditioning is not needed.Evolution of mouse,GUI's are seed in this generation Ex: Apple found the macintosh.

1.First generation computers based on machine language and vaccum tubes are utilized.they utlize the magnetic drums to memory.computers utilized in this generation are high price.more amount of heat is produced.Air conditioning is needed.Ex: UNIVAC and ENIVAC.

2.second generation computers transistors are used which was senior in the place of vaccum tubes which permits the user to be quicker, and lesser.Depends on the punch cards which was same as first generation.cooling method is needed.Energy utilized is not son much.

3.In third generation computers user communicates with keyboard ,sees and interfaced with the operating system that permits the device to run several discrete applications in a single duration through a central programm whih monitors the memory cooling system is needed.Energy utilized is little.able to caliberate the data in nano seconds.Air conditioning is needed.

5.Fifth generation computers are depending upon the artificial intelligence anyway few applications are present like voice generation which are in usage currently.parallel processing and superconductors assist to create a artifiial intelligene in actual scenarios.

By observing all the generations of computers the only common point in 5 generations is amount of energy employed .I think fourth generation is good to power users and 5 th generation for people who need high battery duration.
