Generation in computer terminology is a change in technology a computer is/was being used. Initially, the generation term was used to distinguish between varying hardware technologies. But nowadays, generation includes both hardware and software, which together make up an entire computer system.
Each of the five generations of computers is characterized by a major technological development that fundamentally changed the way computers operate. Most developments resulted in increasingly smaller, cheaper and more powerful and efficient computing devices.
