computer generasi 2

In the year 1948, the findings influence the development of the transistor computer. Transistors replace vacuum cleaner tube in television, radio, and computers. As a result, the size of electrical machinery decreased dramatically.

Transistors used in the start in the computer start in 1956. The findings in the form of the development of magnetic-core memory to help the development of second generation computers smaller, faster, more reliable, and more energy efficient than the preceding. The first engine that utilizes this new technology is superkomputer

IBM makes superkomputer named Stretch, and Sprery create computer-Rand called LARC. Komputerkomputer this, which was developed for atomic energy laboratories, could handle a large amount of data, a capability that is needed by researchers atom. Machine is very expensive and tend to be too complex for the computing needs of business, limiting the kepopulerannya. There are only two LARC has ever installed and used: one at the Lawrence Livermore Labs radiation, California, and the other in the U.S. Navy Research and Development Center in Washington DC Second-generation computers replaced machine language with assembly language. Assembly language is a language that uses abbreviations-singakatan to replace the binary code.

In the early 1960s, computers began to appear a second-generation success in business, in universities and in government. Computers this is a second generation of computers that use the full transistor. They also have components that can be associated with the computer at this time: a printer, floppy disks in the storage, memory, operating system and programs.

One important example of this computer is the IBM 1401 which is widely accepted in the industry. In 1965, almost all large businesses use computers to process the second generation of financial information.

Program stored in the computer and programming language that is in it to give flexibility to the computer. This flexibility to improve performance with a reasonable price for business use. With this concept, the computer can print the invoice and the purchase of consumer product design and then run or the payroll. Some programming languages began to appear at that time. Programming language Common Business-Oriented Language (Cobol) and Formula Translator (FORTRAN) start public use. Programming language is machine code that replaces the complex with the words, sentences, and math formulas more easily understood by humans. This is easier for someone to manage the computer and memprogram. Various new pop careers (programmer, Analyst, and computer systems expert). Software industry also began to appear and develop during the second generation of this computer
