Unified Memory Architecture

Unified Memory Architecture (UMA) is a system where the CPU and GPU share the same memory space, allowing them to access data without needing to copy it between separate memory pools. This setup improves efficiency, as it enables faster communication and reduces latency for applications that require both processing units. Instead of juggling different memory areas, UMA creates a seamless environment where both the CPU and GPU can work with the same data simultaneously, enhancing performance in tasks like graphics rendering and complex calculations, making it especially useful in gaming and high-performance computing.
