Unified Extensible Firmware Interface

Intel developed the original EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) specification. Some of the EFI's practices and data formats mirror those from Microsoft Windows.[4][5] In 2005, UEFI deprecated EFI 1.10 (the final release of EFI). The Unified EFI Forum manages the UEFI specification. History[edit] The original motivation for EFI came during early development of the first Intel–HP Itanium systems in the mid-1990s. In July 2005, Intel ceased development of the EFI specification at version 1.10, and contributed it to the Unified EFI Forum, which has evolved the specification as the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI).

Version 2.1 of the UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) specification was released on 7 January 2007.
