Q. Most of the computers available today are:
Answer:
5th generation computers
Notes: The fifth generation of computers uses artificial intelligence, parallel processing, and ultra-large scale integration (ULSI). These computers use discrete transistors instead of vacuum tubes. The transistors are cheaper, more compact, more reliable, and faster than the first generation vacuum tubes. The generations of computers are:
- First generation: 1950s–1960s
- Second generation: 1960s–1970s
- Third generation: 1970s–present
- Fourth generation: Intel coupled the RAM chip with the microprocessor, making computers smaller and faster
- Fifth generation: Present and the future
