UMA - UMA
Upper Memory AreaMemory area from 640KB to 1MB defined by XMS, the memory management specification for MS-DOS. Normally, this area is reserved for system use and cannot be used freely, but if you use memory management software that supports XMS on an i386 or higher computer, you can move device drivers and resident software to this area to increase the free space in the convention memory. XMSUnified Memory ArchitectureA technology that uses part of the main memory as memory for displaying graphics. It was developed by VESA, the organization that standardizes graphics standards for PC/AT compatible machines. Using UMA slows down processing speed, but eliminates the need for memory for displaying graphics, reducing the cost of the computer.

Upper Memory AreaMS-DOSのメモリー管理仕様であるXMSで定義された、640KBから1MBのメモリー領域。通常、この領域はシステム用として予約されているため、自由に使用することはできないが、i386以上のパソコンでXMSに対応したメモリー管理ソフトを使用すると、デバイスドライバーや常駐ソフトなどをこの領域に待避させてコンベンションメモリーの空き容量を増加できる。XMSUnified Memory Architectureメインメモリーの一部を、グラフィックス表示用のメモリーとして利用するための技術。PC/AT互換機のグラフィックス規格の標準化団体である、VESAによって策定された。UMAを利用すると、処理速度が遅くなるが、グラフィックス表示用のメモリーが不要になるため、パソコンのコストを削減できる。
