Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system improves the performance of compositing individual images representing graphic layers into a composite image. The system may subdivide an image area of the composite image into cells such that for each one of the cells, either none of the graphic layers overlap within a respective one of the cells or all of the graphic layers that overlap within the respective one of the cells overlap throughout the respective one of the cells. A composition operation may be applicable to composite the respective one of the cells. The system may determine which processor generates the respective one of the cells based on which one of the processors is able to perform the type composition operation. The processor may generate the respective one of the cells by processing the composition operation.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A computer implemented method of compositing multiple images, comprising: providing a plurality of graphics buffers representing a plurality of application windows rendered by an application, wherein the rendered application windows represent a plurality of graphic layers to be composited into a composite image; subdividing an image area of the composite image into a plurality of cells such that for each one of the cells, either none of the graphic layers…
