Brijesh Patel presented on the evolution of computers from generation 1 to generation 5. Generation 1 referred to the first digital computer built between 1937 and 1939 by John Vincent Atanasoff and Cliford Berry at Iowa State University. Subsequent generations saw the introduction of the transistor, integrated circuits, microprocessors, and systems that can perform thousands of computations simultaneously. The presentation covered the key developments of each generation and concluded by reflecting on how computers have become a great way to find information and expressing gratitude for the invention of the first computer.

- 1. NAME: BRIJESH PATEL SUBJECT: COMMUNICATION SKILL FOR IT MANAGEMENT-2 ROLL NO: 07 CLASS: S.Y BBA(ITM) SEM-4 COLLEGE: C.P PATEL & F.H SHAH COMMERCE COLLEGE
- 2. PRESENTATION ON Evolution of Computers
- 3. Topics for discussion Generation 1 ( the first digital computer) Generation 2 Generation 3 Generation 4 Generation 5
- 4. Generation 1 This is when the first digital computer was built It was started to be built in 1937 and finished in 1939 John Vincent Atanasoff, and Cliford Berry At Iowa State University
- 5. Generation 2 This invention of the transistor which was faster, smaller and required considerably less power to operate This was introduced in 1959
- 6. Generation 3 By the late 1960’s devices which included more than one circuit on a single silicon chip became available
- 7. Generation 4 In about 1970 the technology was available to place an entire CPU on a single chip and the micro processor was born.
- 8. Generation 5 Current trends now are to exploit the advantages of computer systems which can contain literally thousands of computers. This means that thousands of computations can be taking place at the same time.
- 9. Positives One positive that the computer has is that it makes it easier to find information and faster to find it. Another positive is that they are more efficient, then they used to be. Another positive is that it makes it easier to talk to friends on Aol or Yahoo.
- 10. Negatives One negative is that they can be very slow Another negative is that it might not find the exact information you need, or it might give you something you don’t need.
- 11. Reflection One important thing we learned was that computers are a great way to find information on many topics. Our opinion is that we are glad that John Atanasoff and his colleague designed the computer. It was a great idea!
