Rebootless Display Driver Upgrades
US Patent:
8302089, Oct 30, 2012
Filed:
Sep 1, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/224179
Inventors:

Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 9/445
US Classification:
717171, 717176
Abstract:
Systems and methods for rebootless updating of a IHV display driver are disclosed. According to such a method, first, the operating system stops the driver from running Second, the system switches over to an interim or temporary display driver, which be a default driver provided with the operating system. Third, the new hardware-specific driver is started. Thus, a hardware-specific display driver may be updated without rebooting.

Adaptive Scheduling To Maintain Smooth Frame Rate

US Classification:
345545, 345473, 345474, 345535, 348459, 348556, 715788
Abstract:
Described is an adaptive scheduler associated with a desktop window manager that dynamically controls the rate at which graphics frames are composed. Values corresponding to performance when composing a frame are measured, and the frame composition rate is adjusted as necessary based on the values. The measured data is sampled to provide smooth adjustments. The sampled data is evaluated as to whether the current frame rate is too slow, too fast, or acceptable. If too slow, the frame rate may increased relative to the refresh rate, while if too fast, the frame rate is decreased relative to the refresh rate. In one implementation, the frame rate is too fast if a count of missed frames achieves a missed threshold value, or if a count of late frames achieves a late threshold value. The frame rate is too slow if a count of early frames exceeds an early threshold value.
Methods And System For Managing Computational Resources Of A Coprocessor In A Computing System
US Patent:
2003014, Jul 24, 2003
Filed:

International Classification:
G06F013/10, G06F009/00
US Classification:
709/321000, 709/102000
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for managing the computational resources of coprocessor(s), such as graphics processor(s), in a computing system. The systems and methods illustrate management of computational resources of coprocessors to facilitate efficient execution of multiple applications in a multitasking environment. By enabling multiple threads of execution to compose command buffers in parallel, submitting those command buffers for scheduling and dispatch by the operating system, and fielding interrupts that notify of completion of command buffers, the system enables multiple applications to efficiently share the computational resources available in the system.
