Abstract
A prediction system for determining a set of subregions can be used for rendering a virtual world of a computer graphics application. The subregions belong to streamable objects to be used for rendering the virtual world. The streamable objects each comprise a plurality of subregions. The prediction system comprises a plurality of predictor units arranged for receiving from a computer graphics application information on the virtual world and each arranged for obtaining a predicted set of subregions for rendering a virtual world using streamable objects. Each predicted set can be obtained by applying a different prediction scheme. A streaming manager is arranged for receiving the predicted sets of subregions, for deriving from the predicted sets a working set of subregions to be used for rendering and for outputting, based on the working set of subregions, steering instructions concerning the set of subregions to be actually used.
