Abstract: When generating a graphics processing output by assembling a sequence of one or more of primitives to be processed, vertex attribute processing is performed for vertices of assembled primitives to generate one or more processed vertex attributes for vertices of the assembled primitives. Processed vertex attributes for vertices of assembled primitives are stored in a first storage, and additionally in a second storage. Then when obtaining processed vertex attributes for an assembled primitive, it is checked whether processed vertex attributes for the vertices of the primitive are present in the second storage, and when they are, the processed vertex attributes are read from the second storage, but when the processed vertex attributes are not in the second storage, they are read from the first storage instead.

Abstract: There is provided a graphics primitive assembly circuit comprising an early primitive assembly data generator operable to supply primitive input to a shader and a buffer operable to store early primitive assembly data during operation of the shader and to supply the early primitive assembly data to a late primitive assembly circuit element responsive to completion of operation of the shader. The circuit may also include a compressor that compresses the early primitive assembly data to reduce the amount of storage taken up by the buffer and the bandwidth required to transfer the early primitive assembly data.

Abstract: A method of controlling access of an application is provided. A server receives, from a device, a request to access a hybrid operating system interface (HOSI) for managing at least one application executed respectively on different operating systems (OSs), authenticates the device based on the request received to access the HOSI, determines an application corresponding to the request received from the device, from among the at least one application, when the device is authenticated, and transmits, to the device, data according to execution of the determined application.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing pixels of an image at an imaging hardware device are provided. The method comprises receiving a first pixel. The method further comprises determining a content parameter of the first pixel. The method further comprises, based on the determining, storing the content parameter of the first pixel. The method further comprises initiating a computation of a first output pixel value for the first pixel. The method further comprises receiving a second pixel. The method further comprises determining a content parameter of the second pixel. The method further comprises determining that the second pixel is redundant in response to the content parameter of the second pixel matching the stored content parameter of the first pixel. The method further comprises, in response to the matching, setting a second output pixel value for the second pixel to be equal to the first output pixel value.
