A computer that used transistors in its circuitry was first developed in the?
second generation of computing
What was used as an auxiliary storage in the third generations of computer?
Probably the same thing as was used in second generation computers.
Which generation computer is a supercomputer?
There have been supercomputers in all generations of computers. As the definition of supercomputer is simply any computer having at least 10 times the performance of currently available high performance computers, the very fastest computers of any generation are supercomputers. It is usually scientific and cryptographic applications that drive the need for supercomputers.Some examples of supercomputers from various computer generations are:IBM NORC, first generationUNIVAC LARC, second generationIBM 7030 Stretch, second generationCDC 6600, second generationCDC 7600, second generationILLIAC IV, third generationCDC Star-100, third generationCray-1, third generationetc.
Second generation computers were developed to meet the needs of what?
The second generation computers were developed to meet the needs of the atomic energy laboratories.
What was the second computer ever made?
Colossus Mark II, an improvement on Colossus Mark I which was designed to crack the Germans' code during WWII in 1943/1944.
Is it true that the major innovation in the first computer generation was the introduction of transistors?
the transistor is on the second generations
When second generation of computer was developed?
The first second generation computers came on the market in 1958.

Features of third generations of computer?
The features include: used integrated circuits, smaller in size compared to second generation computers, faster and more reliable, used high level language, magnetic core and solid states as main storage, reduced computational time and had low maintenance cost, input and output became more sophisticated. They were developed during the period of 1964 to 1971.
What are the five generations?
first,second,thirdfourth and fifth generation
