摘要： A computer system retrieves a packet that includes non-zero elements that correspond to sparse-matrix rows. Within the packet, the non-zero elements are stored in predefined fields that each correspond to one of the sparse-matrix rows. The computer system computes output values to correspond with each of the sparse-matrix rows using the non-zero elements and corresponding input values. In turn, the computer system stores the computed output values in consecutive locations within an output buffer and processes the output values accordingly.

摘要： A system and product for a DMA controller with multi-dimensional line-walking functionality is presented. A processor includes an intelligent DMA controller, which loads a line description that corresponds to a shape or line. The intelligent DMA controller moves through a memory map and retrieves data based upon the line description that includes a major step and a minor step. In turn, the intelligent DMA controller retrieves data from the shared memory without assistance from its corresponding processor. In one embodiment, the intelligent DMA controller may analyze a line using the rate of change along its minor axes in conjunction with locations where the line intersects subspaces and store array spans of contiguous memory along the line's major axis.

摘要： A sampling module that adjusts the sampling density of a static data set. Two or more rays are cast onto a surface from a single point of origin. The ray or rays intersect the surface at various locations. The distance between the intersection points of each pair of adjacent rays is calculated. This distance is the current sample density. The current sample density is compared to the desired sample density. If the current sample density is not equal to the desired sample density then the sample density of the next casting of rays is adjusted accordingly.

摘要： Lighting parameters are received as floating-point numbers from a software application via an application programming interface (API). The floating-point numbers are converted to a fixed-point representation having a preselected number of bits. The number of bits is selected in accordance with a predetermined number of bits required by a frame buffer, which thus establishes the number of color values supported by the graphics display system. In order to preserve accuracy to within the number of bits in each value in the frame buffer, the representation in the fixed-point engine includes additional bits relative to the number of bits in the color values sent to the frame buffer. Floating-point values received via the graphics API are converted to fixed-point representations by first prescaling the floating-point values. The fixed-point operations generate a lighting signal value in accordance with a lighting model, and the number of bits therein is reduced to correspond to the number of bits in each data value required by the frame buffer, and the lighting data values are sent as color values to the frame buffer.

摘要： A computer system retrieves a slice of sparse matrix data, which includes multiple rows that each includes multiple elements. The computer system identifies one or more non-zero values stored in one or more of the rows. Each identified non-zero value corresponds to a different row, and also corresponds to an element location within the corresponding row. In turn, the computer system stores each of the identified non-zero values and corresponding element locations within a packet at predefined fields corresponding to the different rows.

摘要： A system and method for cache optimized data formatting is presented. A processor generates images by calculating a plurality of image point values using height data, color data, and normal data. Normal data is computed for a particular image point using pixel data adjacent to the image point. The computed normalized data, along with corresponding height data and color data, are included in a limited space data stream and sent to a processor to generate an image. The normalized data may be computed using adjacent pixel data at any time prior to inserting the normalized data in the limited space data stream.

摘要： Adaptive span computation when ray casting is presented. A processor uses start point fractional values during view screen segment computations that start a view screen segment's computations a particular distance away from a down point. This prevents an excessive sampling density during image generation without wasting processor resources. The processor identifies a start point fractional value for each view screen segment based upon each view screen segment's identifier, and computes a view screen segment start point for each view screen segment using the start point fractional value. View screen segment start points are “tiered” and are a particular distance away from the down point. This stops the view screen segments from converging to a point of severe over sampling while, at the same time, providing a pseudo-uniform sampling density.
