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.
no
That depends on the computer and who set it up.
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.
discrete transistors, usually made of germanium.
The history of computer is divided into 5 generations. First Generation 1941-1956 Second Generation 1956-1963 Third Generation 1964-1971 Fourth Generation 1971- Present Fifth Generation Present and Beyond
ulsi is used in the fifth generation of compyters.
As of October 2023, there are generally considered to be five generations of computed tomography (CT) technology: first-generation, second-generation, third-generation, fourth-generation, and fifth-generation (also known as cone-beam CT). Each generation has introduced advancements in scanning speed, image quality, and radiation dose reduction. The most commonly used systems today are third and fourth generation, with fifth-generation systems primarily used in specific applications like dental imaging.
The main difference between first and fifth generation computers lies in their underlying technology and design principles. First generation computers, developed in the 1940s and 1950s, used vacuum tubes and were large, slow, and expensive. In contrast, fifth generation computers, developed in the 1980s and beyond, utilize advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, parallel processing, and superconductors to achieve high performance and efficiency. Additionally, fifth generation computers focus on solving complex problems using advanced software and hardware, while first generation computers were primarily used for basic calculations and data processing.

2ng generation. It used transistors and magnetic core memory
in second generation of computer transistor were used transistor are used instead of vaccum tube are used in first generation high level langauges such as gobsl, fortran are used
The Second Generation Computer used transistors
