Uniform Memory Access
Shared memory architecture can be divided into two types:
Non-Unified Memory Access (referred to as NUMA) refers to the time that the processor accesses physical memory depends on the physical location of the memory. That is, in a multi-processor architecture, the CPU takes much longer to access shared memory than it takes to access local memory.
