Abstract: A method of generating foveated rendering using temporal multiplexing includes generating a first spatial profile for an FOV by dividing the FOV into a first foveated zone and a first peripheral zone. The first foveated zone will be rendered at a first pixel resolution, and the first peripheral zone will be rendered at a second pixel resolution lower than the first pixel resolution. The method further includes generating a second spatial profile for the FOV by dividing the FOV into a second foveated zone and a second peripheral zone, the second foveated zone being spatially offset from the first foveated zone. The second foveated zone and the second peripheral zone will be rendered at the first pixel resolution and the second pixel resolution, respectively. The method further includes multiplexing the first spatial profile and the second spatial profile temporally in a sequence of frames.

Abstract: A Multi-Purpose Dynamic Simulation and run-time Control platform includes a virtual process environment coupled to a physical process environment, where components/nodes of the virtual and physical process environments cooperate to dynamically perform run-time process control of an industrial process plant and/or simulations thereof. Virtual components may include virtual run-time nodes and/or simulated nodes. The MPDSC includes an I/O Switch which delivers I/O data between virtual and/or physical nodes, e.g., by using publish/subscribe mechanisms, thereby virtualizing physical I/O process data delivery. Nodes serviced by the I/O Switch may include respective component behavior modules that are unaware as to whether or not they are being utilized on a virtual or physical node. Simulations may be performed in real-time and even in conjunction with run-time operations of the plant, and/or simulations may be manipulated as desired (speed, values, administration, etc.).
