Embedded function composition

Abstract

A low-level graphics processor is assembled from a collection of hardwired functions of screen coordinates embedded directly in the display. Configuration of these functions is controlled by a buffer containing parameters delivered to the processor on-the-fly during display scan. The processor is modular and scalable in keeping with the demands of large, high resolution displays.

Speedy bus mastering PCI express

“…When this is not an option, great pains must be taken to create high speed interfaces to facilitate data throughput. For example, our embedded graphics project is in need of such a solution [11].…”
