Computer

electronic device for storing and processing data, typically in binary form

VLSI circuits

having about 5000 transistors and other circuit elements with their associated circuits on a single chip made it possible to have microcomputers of fourth generation

Department of ICT

responsible for the planning, development and promotion of the country's information and communications technology (ICT) agenda in support of national development.

ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer)

was the first electronic general-purpose computer. Turing-complete, digital, and could solve a large class of numerical problems through reprogramming

First Generation

1951-1959 Very Large System Vacuum Tubes Very Slow

Second Generation

1959 to 1963 Transistors Smaller Faster

Third Generation

1963 to 1975; ICs (Integrated Circuits); Small as compared to 2nd generation computers; Faster than 2nd generation computers
