 Memory Computer memory is any physical device capable of storing information Temporarily amd Permanent. Memory is also used by a computer's operating system,hardware and software. Types of Computer Memory There are two Types of Computer memory. Primary Memory Secondary Memory Types of Computer memory Primary Memory Primary Memory also known as Main Storage or Memory . It is the area in a computer in which data is stored for " quick access ". It allows a processor to access running execution applications and services that are temporarily stored in a specific memory location. It is short range memory. For Example "If we play the music file,the file will run in primary memory". Types of primary memory There are two main types of primary memory. RAM ROM primary memory

How many Generations of Computer?

Image
  Computer Generation There are five Generations of Computer First Generation_______1946-1959 Second Generation_____1959-1965 Third Generation______1965-1971 Fourth Generation_____1971-Today Fifth Generation______Today to future First Generation_____Vacuum Tube Vaccuum Tube J.P.Eckert and J.W.Mauchy invent the first successful electronic computer called ENIAC,ENIAC stands for Electronic Numeric Integrated and Calculator. The first computers used Vacuum tubes for circuitry and magnetic drums for memory. They were very expensive to operate and in addition to using a great deal of electricity,generated a lot of heat. First generation computer relied on machine language,the lowest programming language understood by computers to perform calculations,and they could only solve one problem at a time. Second Generation________Transistor Transistor John Bardeen(1908-1991) , William B. Shockley(1910-1989) and Walter H invented the second generation of computer technology. In this ge...
