Ensuring performance of graphics processing units: A programmer’s perspective

Abstract

This paper mainly focuses on the usage of automation system for ensuring the performance of graphics driver created at Intel Corporation. This automation tool takes into account a client-server structural planning which can be utilized by the developers or the validation engineers so as to guarantee whether the graphics drivers are programmed and modified accurately or not. The tool additionally actualizes some of the Driver Private APIs (it allows any application to talk directly with the driver) which will guarantee the properties of the features which are not bolstered by the Operating System (OS). © Springer Science+Business Media Singapore 2017.
