Abstract
Incompatible graphics frameworks present a barrier to emulating applications of one operating system (guest OS) upon a computer system employing a different operating system (host OS) such as occurs with virtual machines. Accordingly, in order to address limitations of emulating guest OS graphic pipelines upon the host OS the inventors have established methodologies for cross-platform graphics pipeline emulation, thus enabling efficient implementations of cross-platform virtualization solutions, through the establishment of emulation keys to support generic and specific graphics pipelines together with caching sets of graphical pipelines for subsequent retrieval and execution.
