    FIFTH GENERATION

                           Timeline: Present

                           Technology: Ultra large-scale integration (ULSI),
                           Artificial Intelligence (Developing the thinking power of
                           computer and make it do things like humans do.)

                           Example of Computer: Super Computers, Robots

                           Features:

                               Recognising voice
                               Making decisions
                               Translation of different languages

                              Still in the development phase

                      FEATURES OF COMPUTERS

                      Computers are present in all spheres of life whether it is at home, school, workplace or a
                      mall. Following are some advantages of computers:
                         Speed: A computer can perform large number of calculations within seconds.
                         Storage Capacity: A computer is capable of storing a large amount of data that can be
                        retrieved as and when required.

                         Accuracy: A computer is capable of producing accurate results. If data entered in the
                        computer is correct, then it never fails to produce correct results.
                         Versatility: A computer can perform a variety of tasks and can be used in different
                        fields like education, entertainment, healthcare, banking, etc.

                         Diligence: A computer does not get tired and can work for longer hours without getting
                        bored. It can perform with the same accuracy and speed, no matter how much time it
                        takes.

                      LIMITATIONS OF COMPUTERS

                      Computers  can do  accurate  work at  high speed,  yet  they  have some  limitations  as
                      compared to human beings. Following are the limitations of computer:

                         No IQ (Intelligence Quotient): It works only on the instructions provided by humans.
                         Lack of Decision-making Ability:  A computer cannot  make  decisions on its  own.  It
                        depends on the input provided by humans and may give inaccurate results when an
                        unexpected situation arises.

                         No Common Sense: A computer cannot learn from their previous mistakes. Therefore,
                        we have to provide accurate data in order to get accurate results.
