<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide video display network management with respect to configuration of a multi-monitor video adapter. <P>SOLUTION: Resources of a video display network having a plurality of outputs can be configured. A provisional configuration can be supported. Configuration of inputs can be performed separately from configuration of outputs. Interdependencies between network resources can be considered to restrict provided options to those co-functional options with a provisional configuration. A client can use a set of functions provided by a service to traverse a configuration solution space. The functions can support a transactional configuration approach. Responsibility for considering interdependencies can be delegated to a video driver, such as a video miniport. The client can use various approaches to find a desired configuration. The desired configuration can be treated as a solution of an NP-complete graph problem. A variety of configuration goals (e.g., optimal configurations) can be achieved in light of the interdependencies. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
