    摘要: A method and corresponding apparatus are configured to generate a mipmap are configured to allocate a mipmap status register of a mipmap level generated with respect to a texture, receive a request for the texture, and calculate a mipmap level with respect to the texture. The method and corresponding apparatus are also configured to determine whether a mipmap of the calculated mipmap level exists using the mipmap status register and outputting a result indicative thereof, and determine whether to generate the mipmap of the mipmap level based on the result.

    摘要: A rendering method includes generating mipmap images of some levels with respect to texture and storing the generated mipmap images in a storage, receiving a request for the texture, calculating a level of a mipmap requested for the texture, determining whether the stored mipmap images include the mipmap image of the calculated level, and performing rendering by using at least one of the stored mipmap images, based on a result of the determining.

    摘要: A tile-based rendering method and a tile-based rendering apparatus are provided. The tile-based rendering method involves performing tile binning on a first image and a second image having binocular disparity using a plurality of graphic processors based on a draw command, determining a tile of the second image having a highest similarity to a tile of the first image based on a result of the tile binning, determining a tile rendering order for each tile of the first image and the second image, based on a result of the determining of the tile of the second image having a highest similarity to the tile of the first image, and performing tile rendering, according to the determined tile rendering order.

    摘要: A graphics processing unit (GPU) configured to perform a graphics pipeline may generate operation data based on base operation data representing a base state of a plurality of components and implement the plurality of components to perform the graphics pipeline according to the generated operation data. The GPU may determine a priority of a plurality of instances of state version data based on frequencies of use associated with the plurality of instances of state version data, maintain first state version data having a determined highest priority from among the plurality of instances of state version data, and control second state version data having a determined lower priority than the first state version data to be updated based on a graphics pipeline being performed. The state version data may include code associated with performing the graphics pipeline in each of a plurality of states of the plurality of components.
