Abstract

A rendering method includes generating mipmap images of some levels with respect to texture and storing the generated mipmap images in a storage, receiving a request for the texture, calculating a level of a mipmap requested for the texture, determining whether the stored mipmap images include the mipmap image of the calculated level, and performing rendering by using at least one of the stored mipmap images, based on a result of the determining.
