Abstract:
1. A method for rendering an image on a display of a device, the method comprising: accessing a first frame, of an image to be rendered to the display of the device, in a first buffer; determining that one or more portions of the first frame will be unchanged in a second frame of the image and that one or more portions of the first frame will change in the second frame; copying the unchanged portions of the first frame to a second buffer; creating a list of instructions that when executed will generate the changed portions of the second frame; determining that at least one of the instructions in the list of instructions is at least partially redundant to at least one other instruction in the list of instructions; prior to executing the list of instructions, optimizing the list of instructions by removing at least one instruction that is at least partially redundant; and executing the optimized list of instructions to generate the changed portions of the second frame.
