    FIRST GENERATION,

    19511958: The Vacuum Tube The first generation of computers, characterized by vacuum tubes, started in 1951

    with the creation of -

    UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer)a tabulating machine which won thecontest for the fastest machine which could count the US 1890 census.

    VACUUM TUBESelectronic tubes about the size of light bulbs.

    SECOND GENERATION,

    19591964: The Transistor

    The year 1959 marked the invention of transistors, which characterized the secondgeneration of computers.

    TRANSISTORwas a three-legged component which shrunk the size of the firstgeneration computers. Occupied only 1/100thof the space occupied by a vacuum tube

    More reliable, had greater computational speed, required no warm-up time and consumedfar less electricity.

    THIRD GENERATION,

    19651970: The Integrated Circuit

    Third generation computers arose in 1965 with the invention of smaller electronic

    circuits called integrated circuits (ICS)

    INTEGRATED CIRCUITSare square silicon chips containing circuitry that can

    perform the functions of hundreds of transistors.

    Primary Memory

    Primary storageor memory: Is where the data and program that are

    currently in operation or being accessed are stored during use.

    Consists of electronic circuits: Extremely fast and

    expensive. Two types:

    RAM(non-permanent)

    Programs and data can be stored here for the computers use.

    Volatile: All information will be lost once the computer shutsdown.

    ROM(permanent)

    Contents do not change.

    Magnetic Hard Disk

    Internal hard diskis a magneticstorage device with

    One or more thin platters that store

    information sealed inside the disk drive. Read/write heads access the information

    on surface

    Heads readinformation while copying itfrom disk to RAM

    Heads writeinformation when copying itfrom RAM to disk

    RAM

    RAM is basically a computer's short-term memory, it temporarily stores theinformation a program requires to run while it is running.

    RAM runs at a very high speed when compared to hard-drive speed because it is

    used and needed more.

    In fact RAM is so important that RAM size and speed can play an equal or greater

    part in the computer's speed than the CPU. However the data stored in RAM is lost when the computer is switched off, so it

    can not be used for long term storage.

    Modern computers can get up to 4GB of ram, and 512MB is required to install the

    latest version of Windows, "Vista."

    SOFTWARES - are programs that make a

    computer run. They are sets of instructions

    which tell the computer what to do to come

    up with the desired result.

    DEFINITION

    Concept

  • 8/14/2019 ppt for technlogy

    80/106

    Concept

    The HW needs SW to be useful; the SW

    needs HW to be useful

    When the user needs something to bedone by the computer, he/she gives

    instructions in the form of SW tocomputer HW

    These instructions need to be written in a

    language that is readily understoodby thecomputer.

    System Software- Programs that work automatically once you open or

    boot your computer.

    - Their task include loading and running programs,

    checking and protecting computers, and controlling

    hardware.- It is the control software that operates the hardware and

    allows the application to run.

    Operating System (OS)

    p g y

    Performs its work invisibly to control the internal functions

    of a computer, e.g. maintaining fileson the disk drive,managing the screen, controlling which tasks thecomputer performsand in what order

    It interacts directly with the computer HW

    Other SW normally does not directly interact with the HW,but through the OS
