| 20110102443 | Virtualized GPU in a Virtual Machine Environment - Methods and systems are disclosed for virtualizing a graphics accelerator such as a GPU. In one embodiment, a GPU can be paravirtualized. Rather than modeling a complete hardware GPU, paravirtualization may provide for an abstracted software-only GPU that presents a software interface different from that of the underlying hardware. By providing a paravirtualized GPU, a virtual machine may enable a rich user experience with, for example, accelerated 3D rendering and multimedia, without the need for the virtual machine to be associated with a particular GPU product. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110141123 | Push Pull Adaptive Capture - In various embodiments, a screen image may be divided into rectangles, and a capture component may track changed rectangles and capture the screen upon receiving an indication. For small screen updates, the capture rate may be set to ˜30 captures per second to provide a lower latency. As the screen update size increases, the capture rate may be decreased to match an allocated bandwidth. The capture rate may be increased when available bandwidth increases and decreased as bandwidth decreases. For example, the capture rate may be decreased when downstream back pressure meets predefined criteria. The capture rate change may be effected gradually to avoid jerks and jumps. Varying the capture rate by also enable audio/video synchronization with varying bandwidth variations. Some embodiments may be extended to multiple monitor solutions. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110197151 | GRAPHICS REMOTING USING AUGMENTATION DATA - Methods and systems are disclosed in which bitmap data transmission is improved by using some of the advantages of primitive remoting, thus allowing for the reduction of the bandwidth and processing needed to remote a virtual desktop experience. In an embodiment, rendering is performed and bitmaps are remoted, but metadata comprising shortcuts or hints are provided to assist in the rendering of the bitmap data. | 08-11-2011 |
