The chart of the five major generations of computers is given below. 

1. First Generation Computers 

  • The first-generation computers that were in use from 1946 to 1959 used vacuum tubes and magnetic drums as the basic components of the CPU and memory.
  • They were very massive in size and had a large amount of energy loss in the form of heat.
  • The frequent fusing of the installations made them very expensive.
  • ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator), EDVAC, UNIVAC, IBM-701, IBM-650, etc., were some first-generation computers. 

2. Second Generation Computers 

  • In the second generation of computers, cheaper, low-power-consuming, compact-sized, reliable, and faster transistors were used as the building blocks of the CPU.
  • These computers that were in use from 1959 to 1965 used magnetic cores, tapes, and discs as storage devices.
  • The use of batch processing, multiprogramming operating systems, and high-level programming languages like FORTRAN and COBOL were some of the features of second-generation computers like IBM 1620, IBM 7094, CDC 1604, CDC 3600, UNIVAC 1108, etc.

3. Third-Generation Computers

  • The third generation computers that were in use from 1965 to 1971 used Integrated Chips (IC's) invented by Jack Kilby as the basic component of the CPU.
  • The use of IC's helped to invent more reliable, efficient, and smaller-sized computers like the IBM-360 series, Honeywell-6000 series, PDP (Personal Data Processor), IBM-370/168, etc.
  • Use of remote sensing, time-sharing, and high-level programming languages like FORTRAN - II to IV, COBOL, PASCAL PL/1, BASIC, ALGOL-68, etc. were the salient features of third-generation computers.

4. Fourth Generation Computers

  • The fourth generation computers that were in use from 1971 to 1980 used Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits in the CPU. 
  • The powerful, compact, reliable, and affordable fourth-generation computers like Micral, IBM 5100, Altair 8800, etc., led to the beginning of the Personal Computer era.
  • The use of real-time networks, distributed operating systems, and high-level programming languages like C, C++, DBASE, etc. were some of the features of fourth-generation computers.

5. Fifth Generation Computers

  • The fifth generation computers that have been in use from 1980 to date use microprocessors that work on Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI) technology. 
  • Artificial Intelligence software and parallel processing hardware are the peculiarities of fifth-generation computers like PDP-8, PDP-11, ICL 2900, IBM 360, IBM 370, etc.
  • All high-level languages, such as C, C++, Java,.Net, and others, are used in today's computers.
