System and method for load balancing in a multi-channel graphics system

摘要

A pull-model system and method provides display data over a network to a plurality of display devices having the same or different video format requirements. Utilization of image memory bandwidth is balanced between the plurality of display devices. Based on image memory bandwidth requirements for the plurality of display devices, a bandwidth allocation table is generated to indicate a servicing priority for the display devices. A plurality of requests for pixel data are received and stored in a request buffer. The requests are then serviced in an order indicated by the bandwidth allocation table.
