Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that switches between frame buffers which are used to refresh a display. During operation, the system refreshes the display from a first frame buffer which is located in a first memory. Upon receiving a request to switch frame buffers for the display, the system reconfigures data transfers to the display so that the display is refreshed from a second frame buffer which is located in a second memory.
