By going into World War 2, the countries involved in the war are trying to develop computers to exploit the potential of the strategy that owned a computer. This increases funding for the development of computers as well as speeding up the progress of computer engineering.
The computer is designed by John Presper Eckert (1919-1995) and Jhon w Mauchly (1970-1980) is a versatile computer ENICA work 1000 times faster in compare Mark 1 on the middle (1940-1957). Join the team of the University Of Pennsylvania was an attempt to build a computerconcept design up to the next 40 years are still in use in computer engineering. Von Neumann design (EDVAC) in 1945 with a memory to hold both the program or data.
This technique allows the computer to stop at some point and then and continue his job back. Von Neumann architecture is a major key is the central processor unit to fix computer functions through a single source. 1951 UNIVACI made by Remington Rond became the first commercial computer that makes use of the Von Neumann architecture.
The first generation of computer characteristics with the fact that operation instruction made specifically for a specific task. Each computer has a different binary code, which is called "machine language". This causes the computer difficult to program and limit its speed. Another way from the first generation of computers is the use of vacuum tube (which makes the computer at the time of the very large-sized) and a cylinder type for data storage.
From the description we can conclude that the characteristics of the first generation of computers include:
1. Operation made specifically for a particular task
2. create a Program in machine language
3. using the concept of stroed program
4. Components in use is the vacuum chamber
5. physical Size that requires a large electrical power
6. using the magnetic cylinder for storing data
The first generation of computers that include, among others:
Mark1, Mark2, Mark3, IBM720, IBM704, IBM709, Enica, Edvac, UNIVC1, UNIVC2,Datamatic1000, CRC, NCR102A, NCR102D, Bicmac, dan Bicmac2.
