Solution: Generation in computer terminology is a change in technology a computer is/was being used. The term is used to distinguish between various hardware technologies.

Solution: The statement is false. The third generation was based on integrated circuits.

Solution: The 4th gen was VLSI microprocessor based. The period of fourth generation: 1972-1990.

Solution: First generation of computer started with using vacuum tubes as the basic components for memory and circuitry for CPU(Central Processing Unit).

Solution: Batch processing was mainly used in the 1st generation. In this generation Punched cards, Paper tape, Magnetic tape Input & Output device were used.

Solution: AI is an emerging branch in computer science, which interprets means and method of making computers think like human beings.

Solution: It stands for Ultra Large Scale Integration. It is a part of the fifth generation computers.

Solution: The fourth generation of computers is marked by the use of Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits. In this generation Time sharing, Real time, Networks, Distributed Operating System was used.

Solution: High Level Language(HLL) has languages like FORTRAN, COBOL. HLL isn’t in machine language. It is converted to machine language for further processing.

Solution: The period of the 2nd generation is 1952-1964. The period of the first generation was 1942-1954.
