The fifth generation of computers spans
from
* This era introduced blank technology, enabling the
production of microprocessor chips with
up to ten million digital electronic
components

Answer 2

1990 to the present day.

Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI)

Fifth-generation computing heavily relies on
parallel processing hardware and Artificial
Intelligence (AI) software.
* AI is a significant focus in this generation, aiming to
make computers mimic human thinking processes.

• High-level programming languages like C, C++, Java,
  .Net, and others are commonly used in fifthgeneration computing.
