Abstract

A current display system comprises a plurality of computer blades, interconnected with each other and each hosting a graphics processor and a plurality of virtualized operating systems (OS) run by an hypervisor and sharing said graphics processor. Each computer blade is connected directly to a set of display devices including a part of a plurality of display devices. All computer blades are connected to all the display devices. Each virtualized OS runs a global compositor instance and at least one application. The global compositor instance of a first virtualized OS transmits a graphical output to a display device driven by a second virtualized OS, via the global compositor instance of said second virtualized OS, so that an application content from an application run by said first virtualized OS is displayed on said second display device.
