Managing three dimensional scenes using shared and unified graphics processing unit memory

Abstract

Three dimensional scenes may be managed between a central processing unit and a graphics processing unit using shared and unified graphics processing unit memory. A shared bus memory may be synchronized between the central processing unit and the graphics processing unit. The shared bus memory may be used for more often updated components and other memory may be used for less often updated components. In some embodiments, if the graphics processor and the central processor use a common processor instruction set architecture, data can be sent from the central processor to the graphics processor without serializing the data.
