Abstract
Memory graphics processing units (GPUs) are provided. In one aspect, a GPU for massive parallel processing of at least part of an image includes a plurality of pixel processing cores, each of the pixel processing cores configured to process a pixel of the image, and each of the pixel processing cores comprising a plurality of bit processing cores each configured to process a bit of the image and a plurality of address lines configured to provide access to the bit processing cores. The pixel processing cores are configured to process pixels of the image in parallel.

A graphics processing unit (GPU) for massive parallel processing of at least part of an image, comprising:
- a plurality of pixel processing cores, each of the pixel processing cores configured to process a pixel of the image, and each of the pixel processing cores comprising a plurality of bit processing cores each configured to process a bit of the pixel;
- and
- a plurality of address lines configured to provide access to the bit processing cores,
- wherein the pixel processing cores are configured to process pixels of the image in parallel.
A graphics processing unit (GPU) for massive parallel processing of at least part of an image, comprising:
- a plurality of processing cores each configured to process a bit of the image, each of the plurality of processing cores comprising an electronic circuit configured to store information and to process the information;
- and
- a plurality of interconnect lines configured to connect the plurality of processing cores;
- wherein the plurality of processing cores are arranged such that individual pixels of the image are processed in parallel.
A method of parallel processing of image data, comprising:
- moving image data representing at least part of an image from a memory to a memory graphics processing unit (GPU);
- processing the image data to perform a graphic function including a plurality of processing tasks on different parts of the image data in parallel within the memory GPU;
- and
- moving the processed image data from the memory GPU to the memory.
