GENERATION OF COMPUTERS The term generation indicates the type of technology used in the computer construction. As new technology was emerging‚ it was being used in the making of computer. The new technology improved the speed‚ accuracy and storage capacity of the computers. Different technologies have been used for computers in different times. Therefore‚ computers can be divided into five generations depending upon the technologies used. These are: First Generation (1940 - 1956) Second

Brief History of Computers (A Look Back at Computing) Computers have become one of the most important parts of modern society. Nearly everything that is modern required or uses computer related technology in some way. But how did computers as we know them come to exist? Did someone sitting in his lab just one day say‚ "Aha! I’ve got it! The computer?! Well‚ no‚ that is not how this happened. Rather‚ many years of brilliant ideas and research from many different individuals contributed

a VPU or a visual processing unit‚ is a specialised electronic circuit designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in frame buffer intended for output to a display. GPUs are very efficient at manipulating computer graphics‚ and their highly parallel structure makes them more effective than genera; purpose CPUs for algorithms where processing of large blocks of data is done in parallel. It is a specialized circuit designed to accelerate the image output in
