In the Second Generation of Computer, Vacuum tubes were replaced with Transistors. The electronic vacuum tube was invented by Villium Shokli and his friend scientist in Bell laboratory in America. Themain characteristics of computer of this generation are:-
(1)Size was small because of use of transistor.
(2)Use of high level Language like COBOL, FORTRAN, etc.
(3)A very low heat used to come out from transistor. So capacity of regular work was good.
(4)The size of computer was small so weight was also low of this generation computer compare to 1st generation. But transfer was not possible.
(5)One or two person could control it easily.
(6)The processing speed was good compare to 1st generation of computer.
(7)Their prize was low and was easy in use.
(8)Magnetic tape utilized for storing data.
(9)Computer of this generation were mainly Univac,IBM 700, Atlas.etc.
