Abstract

Systems and methods for a tessellation are described. For tessellation, a tessellation unit may divide a domain into a plurality of portions, where at least one portion is a contiguous portion. The tessellation unit may output domain coordinates of primitives along diagonal strips within the contiguous portion to increase the likelihood that patch coordinates that correspond to the domain coordinates are stored in a reuse buffer.
