摘要:
A method and system for an early Z test in a tile-based three-dimensional rendering is provided. In the method and system for an early Z test, a portion which is not displayed to a user is removed prior to performing a rasterization process, and thereby performing the 3D rendering efficiently. The method includes segmenting a scene into tiles for performing a rendering with respect to a triangle; selecting a first tile of the tiles, which has a tile Z value less than a minimum Z value of the triangle; and performing the rendering with respect to the triangle in remaining tiles excluding the selected first tile of the tiles.

Provided is a method and apparatus for measuring a performance or a progress state of an application program to perform data processing and execute particular functions in a computing environment using a micro architecture. A thread progress tracking apparatus may include a selector to select at least one thread constituting an application program; a determination unit to determine, based on a predetermined criterion, whether an instruction execution scheme corresponds to a deterministic execution scheme having a regular cycle or a nondeterministic execution scheme having an irregular delay cycle with respect to each of at least one instruction constituting a corresponding thread; and a deterministic progress counter to generate a deterministic progress index with respect to an instruction that is executed by the deterministic execution scheme, excluding an instruction that is executed by the nondeterministic execution scheme.

A tile binning method including: dividing a scene for rendering a triangle, into a plurality of tiles; determining identification values of tile nodes of each of the tiles; and identifying a tile including an entirety or a part of the triangle from the tiles, based on the identification value of the tile nodes for each of the tiles.

A format conversion apparatus which converts image data of a band interleave format into image data of a band separate format is provided. The apparatus includes a memory which stores image data of a band interleave format; and a converting module which reads the memory by increasing a read address of the memory for each stride, and converts the image data of the band interleave format into image data of a band separate format.
