DATA PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

In a data processing system for improving processing speed, a main CPU transmits coordinates of a center point in a three-dimensional space over a main bus 101 to a programmable pre-processor which generates figure data for drawing plural unit figures (polygons) around the center point transmitted from the CPU and sends the figure data to a GPU. The CPU performs rendering processing in accordance with figure data supplied from the PPP for drawing a picture defined by the combination of the unit figures on a graphic memory.
