Abstract

In this Paper, we introduce an efficient on-line software service using an application customized graphic offloading library. The software service based on graphic offloading provides high-end software, like a 3D graphic design tool, as an on-line software service through using a client graphic rendering. When software is executed on server, its graphic works are handled by a client's GPU, while its data works are handled by a server's CPU. To improve the performance, we apply an asynchronous transmission channel scheme to our developed basic graphic offloading engine. Also, we add optimized common module and application specific module to our engine. To do that, we introduce how to implement the application specific module using analyzing patterns of graphic related APIs and messages that are generated by an executed software process. Also, we propose how to design the optimized common module using server side information caching. Finally, through the performance comparison experiment, we show that improved offloading engine has the better performance than old basic offloading engine.
