Abstract
Parallel graphics-processing methods and mobile computing apparatus with parallel graphics-processing capabilities are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment of a mobile computing apparatus includes physical memory, at least two distinct graphics-processing devices, and a bus coupled to the physical memory and the at least two graphics-processing devices. A virtual graphics processing component enables each of at least two graphics-processing operations to be executed, in parallel, by a corresponding one of the at least two distinct graphics-processing devices, which operate in the same memory surface at the same time.
