The geometric processing of an ordered sequence of graphics commands is distributed over a set of processors by the following steps. The sequence of graphics commands is partitioned into an ordered set of N subsequences S0 . . . SN1, and an ordered set of N state vectors V0 . . . VN1 is associated with...http://www.google.co.uk/patents/US6384833?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US6384833 - Method and parallelizing geometric processing in a graphics rendering pipeline
