Microprocessor
The microprocessor is a computer processor built onto a single piece of silicon, known as a wafer or chip.
First microprocessor is Intel 4004 developed by American Intel Corporation 1n 1971.
Used in forth generation computer as a major components.
Integrated circuits(IC)
Integrated circuits(IC) Integrated circuits were made possible by experimental discoveries which showed that semiconductor devices could perform the functions of vacuum tubes, and by mid-20th-century technology advancements in semiconductor device fabrication. The integration of large numbers of tiny transistors into a small chip was an enormous improvement over the manual assembly of circuits using electronic components. The integrated circuit's mass production capability, reliability, and building-block approach to circuit design ensured the rapid adoption of standardized ICs in place of designs using discrete transistors.

Capabilities and capability-based security
Capabilities and capability-based security performs compution at enourmous speed wirh 100% accuracy rate.It perform provides job repeatedly without dart and tired.It provides us information while can used in future for different purpose. the only exception is "at most one special type of capability system ",in which the manipulation of capabilites must be done by be believe hardware. A capability is defined to a protected object reference which, by virture of its possession by a user process. Capability-based security is a concept in the design of secure computing systems. A capability (known in some systems as a key) is a communicable, unforgivable token of authority. A user program on a capability-based operating system must use a capability to access an object. Capabilities are typically stored by the operating system in a list, with some mechanism in place to prevent the program from directly modifying the contents of the capability (so as to forge access rights or change the object it points to).At last , when a capability propagates between compartments, security policy and identities must be checked.
Limitation of computer
Although computer are very useful device and appilied and varius fields but there are limitation of computer.
- Computer does not have its own intelligency.
- computer is dull machine.
- computer can not memorize and recall an needed by it.
- Instructions are needed to perform any task
Characteristic of computer
Speed:
computer can perform very complex calculations at very enormous speed. generally, the speed of computer is measured in terms of fraction of speed.

Definition of computer
Computer is an programmable machine. computer is an electronic machine which can accept row material data and process then give instruction. Today, however, the term is most often used to refer to the desktop computer and laptop computer the most people use. Complex computer also include the means for storing data(including the program which is also a form of data) for some necessary duration. A program, be invariable and built into the computer(and called logic circuitry as it is on microprocessor) or different different program may be provide the computer. (loaded into its storage and then start by an administration or user). When referring to a desktop model, the term "computer" technically only refers to the computer it seat - not the monitor, keyboard and mouse.
The main characteristic of a computer are:
It responds to a set of instruction provided from an input device.
It process the provided set of instruction
It gives out the meaningful result after processing the instruction.
