Abstract: A method of assembling a composite image comprising generating three-dimensional data defining a non-stereo image, assigning a first screen portion to a first rendering node, assigning a second screen portion to a second rendering node, rendering, by the first rendering node, a left image portion from the three-dimensional data, rendering, by the second rendering node, a right image portion from the three-dimensional data, and sequentially assembling the left image portion and the right image portion into the composite image is provided.

Abstract: A centralized resource system comprises a plurality of compute resource units, a plurality of visualization resource units, and a switching fabric coupling the plurality of visualization resource units to the plurality of compute resource units. The switching fabric is operable to couple select one or more visualization resource units to select one or more compute resource units for generating at least one graphical image. A plurality of display devices is coupled to the one or more select visualization resource units operable to display the at least one graphical image.

Abstract: A system and method for configuring a plurality of graphics pipelines in a computer graphical display system is disclosed. The method comprises displaying a graphical user interface to enable a user to graphically specify at least one parameter for a plurality of pipe rectangles of the computer graphical display system, each of the plurality of pipe rectangles being associated with at least one of the plurality of graphics pipelines, receiving the at least one parameter, and updating a compositor of the computer graphical display system in real-time based at least in part on the at least one parameter.

Abstract: A system rendering graphical data from a graphics application utilizes a plurality of frame buffers, a plurality of graphics pipelines, and logic. Each of the graphics pipelines is configured to render graphical data to a different one of the frame buffers. The logic is configured to determine a mode of operation of the graphics application and to prevent, based on the mode of operation of the graphics application, at least one of the graphics pipelines from rendering the graphical data from the graphics application.
