## Abstract

A method of controlling an information processing apparatus includes generating, using a hardware, first image data corresponding to a first area of an image to be displayed on a screen of a client apparatus coupled to the information processing apparatus, generating, using a processor other than the hardware, second image data corresponding to a second area of the image, and transferring the first image data and second image data to the client apparatus separately.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method of controlling an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
generating, using a hardware, first image data corresponding to a first area of an image to be displayed on a screen of a client apparatus coupled to the information processing apparatus;
generating, using a processor other than the hardware, second image data corresponding to a second area of the image; and
transferring the first image data and second image data to the client apparatus separately.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein
the transferring includes:
transferring third image data obtained by excluding, from the first image data, image data of an overlap area in which the first area is overlapped with the second area, and
transferring fourth image data obtained by combining image data of the first image data corresponding to a transparent area with image data of the second image data corresponding to the transparent area, the transparent area being an area in which one of the first image data and the second image data is transparently seen through another one of the first image data and second image data.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein
the transferring obtains the first image data generated in the generating synchronously with transferring the first image data.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein
the transferring obtains the first image data asynchronously with generation of the first image data.

### Claim 5

An information processing apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to
generate, using a hardware, first image data corresponding to a first area of an image to be displayed on a screen of a client apparatus coupled to the information processing apparatus;
generate, using the processor, second image data corresponding to a second area of the image; and
transfer the first image data and second image data to the client apparatus separately.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 5,
the processor is configured to
transfer third image data obtained by excluding, from the first image data, image data of an overlap area in which the first area is overlapped with the second area, and
transfer fourth image data obtained by combining image data of the first image data corresponding to a transparent area with image data of the second image data corresponding to the transparent area, the transparent area being an area in which one of the first image data and the second image data is transparently seen through another one of the first image data and second image data.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 5, wherein
the processor is configured to obtain the first image data synchronously with transferring the first image data.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 5,
the processor is configured to obtain the first image data asynchronously with generation of the first image data.

### Claim 9

A medium storing a program for causing an information processing apparatus to execute a procedure comprising:
generating, using a hardware, first image data corresponding to a first area of an image to be displayed on a screen of a client apparatus coupled to the information processing apparatus;
generating, using a processor other than the hardware, second image data corresponding to a second area of the image; and
transferring the first image data and second image data to the client apparatus separately.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The medium according to claim 9, wherein
the transferring including
transferring third image data obtained by excluding, from the first image data, image data of an overlap area in which the first area is overlapped with the second area, and
transferring fourth image data obtained by combining image data of the first image data corresponding to a transparent area with image data of the second image data corresponding to the transparent area, the transparent area being an area in which one of the first image data and the second image data is transparently seen through another one of the first image data and second image data.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The medium according to claim 9, wherein
the transferring obtains the first image data asynchronously with generation of the first image data.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

The medium according to claim 9, wherein
the transferring obtains the first image data generated in the generating synchronously with transferring the first image data.
