Abstract
A client computing system in a client-server computing environment includes a client display driver that receives a transmission from a server, decodes graphics commands from the transmission using a client application, executes the functions using a client 3D library stored in a memory of the client, and renders the resulting image data to a display. The client may transmit capability information to the server, allowing the resolution of differences between the graphics application programming interfaces (APIs) supported on the server and the client.
