Unit 7 Research Paper 1: UEFI BIOS 1. UEFI BIOS - is a specification that defines a software interface between the operating system(s) and the platform's firmware. In the mid 90s Intel was creating a new processor architecture that was 64-bit, but wasn't backwards-compatible with the old x86. This architecture was the Itanium 64. Because the IA-64 only supports 64-bit instructions, the PC BIOS couldn't be used, therefore Intel developed the EFI specification. Later on this specification was managed
