Fifth generation computing was a design program, starting in 1982, to use massively parallel processing. it's purpose was to lay the groundwork for supercomputers and Artificial Intelligence.
First generation used vacuum tubes.
Second generation used transistors and diodes.
Third generation used integrated circuits.
Fourth generation used microprocessors.
Fifth generation was to use massive parallel processing.
This plan was to last for ten years, after which it was considered ended.
and a sixth generation would begin.
Obviously, since over 30 years have passed, we have just barely begun using massively parallel processing. The most advanced personal computers use quad core architecture, while industrial versions can use thousands of sub-processors.
