DISTRIBUTED GRAPHICS PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

A method and apparatus forward a hardware call from a driver to graphics hardware via a virtual connection. Specifically, the method and apparatus process graphical data in a system having the driver, which produces a hardware call for the controlling the operation of the graphics hardware. As noted above, the method and apparatus first establish the virtual connection between the driver and the graphics hardware. Next, the hardware call is forwarded to the graphics hardware via the virtual connection.
