Third Generation Computers were made out of Integrated Circuits and Fourth Generation Computers are made of Microprocessors.
probably fourth, but after third people tend to differ on generation definitions.
The third generation of computer input and output devices was marked by an improvement in the tape-processing capabilities.
The Second Generation Computer used transistors
Each computer generation had different characteristics. The first generation used vacuum tubes, the second used transistors, the third used integrated circuits, and the fourth uses microprocessors. The fifth generation is still developing and will use Artificial Intelligence.
third generation
The features include: used integrated circuits, smaller in size compared to second generation computers, faster and more reliable, used high level language, magnetic core and solid states as main storage, reduced computational time and had low maintenance cost, input and output became more sophisticated. They were developed during the period of 1964 to 1971.
Any machine with the majority of its functionality implemented with electronic circuits.
As of 2014, the third generation firewall is the most commonly one used. A firewall is used as an added protection for your computer.
Differentiate between third generation of computers and fourth generation?"
Probably the same thing as was used in second generation computers.
