Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a central processing unit (CPU) and a graphics processing unit (GPU). The GPU obtains multiple blocks having a predetermined number of pixels. For each of the blocks, the GPU generates an intermediate block for which a spatial redundancy is removed. The GPU further outputs a portion of data of the intermediate block and specifying information corresponding thereto. The CPU reads the specifying information, and executes compression processing based on the specifying information. The CPU further reads the portion of the data corresponding to the specifying information.
