  2. Framebuffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framebuffer

    A framebuffer (frame buffer, or sometimes framestore) is a portion of random-access memory (RAM) [1] containing a bitmap that drives a video display. It is a memory buffer containing data representing all the pixels in a complete video frame . [ 2 ]

  3. Uniform memory access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_memory_access

    Uniform memory access (UMA) is a shared memory architecture used in parallel computers.All the processors in the UMA model share the physical memory uniformly. In an UMA architecture, access time to a memory location is independent of which processor makes the request or which memory chip contains the transferred data.

  4. Upper memory area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_memory_area

    In DOS memory management, the upper memory area (UMA) is the memory between the addresses of 640 KB and 1024 KB (0xA0000–0xFFFFF) in an IBM PC or compatible. IBM reserved the uppermost 384 KB of the 8088 CPU 's 1024 KB address space for BIOS ROM , Video BIOS , Option ROMs , video RAM, RAM on peripherals, memory-mapped I/O , and obsoleted ROM ...

  5. Adaptive bitrate streaming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_bitrate_streaming

    Adaptive streaming overview Adaptive streaming in action. Adaptive bitrate streaming is a technique used in streaming multimedia over computer networks.. While in the past most video or audio streaming technologies utilized streaming protocols such as RTP with RTSP, today's adaptive streaming technologies are based almost exclusively on HTTP, [1] and are designed to work efficiently over large ...

  6. Comparison of video container formats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_video...

    In high bitrate encodings, the content payload is usually large enough to make the overhead data relatively insignificant, but in low bitrate encodings, the inefficiency of the overhead can significantly affect the resulting file size if the container uses large stream packet headers or a large number of packets.

  7. VESA BIOS Extensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VESA_BIOS_Extensions

    A superset of the VBE 2.0 standard. This standard adds refresh rate control, facilities for stereo glasses, improved multi-buffering and other functions to the VBE 2.0 standard. Triple buffering Allows high speed applications to perform multi-buffering with less screen flickering and without having to wait for the graphics controller.

  8. Linux framebuffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_framebuffer

    Knoppix booting on the framebuffer. The Linux framebuffer (fbdev) is a linux subsystem used to show graphics on a computer monitor, typically on the system console. [1]It was designed as a hardware-independent API to give user space software access to the framebuffer (the part of a computer's video memory containing a current video frame) using only the Linux kernel's own basic facilities and ...
