Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Techniques for rate governing of a display data stream are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may comprise a processor circuit and a graphics management module comprising a differential analyzer. In some embodiments, the graphics management module may be operative on the processor circuit to determine a target display data transmission rate for one or more displays, determine, by the differential analyzer, an actual display data transmission rate for one or more display data packets based on the target display data transmission rate, transmit the one or more display data packets based on the actual display data transmission rate, and accumulate a difference between the actual display data transmission rate and the target display data transmission rate for the one or more display data packets. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: determining, by a processor circuit, a target display data transmission rate for one or more displays; generating, by a digital differential analyzer (DDA) communicatively coupled to the processor circuit, an actual display data transmission rate for one or more display data packets based on the target display data transmission rate; transmitting the one or more display data packets based on the actual display data transmissio…
