Abstract

A computing device performs a first operation before a first commit deadline, resulting in a first frame being rendered and displayed in a first cycle. A second operation is performed, before a second commit deadline, resulting in a second frame being rendered and displayed in a second cycle. A time remaining to a third commit deadline is determined, using the current time. A third operation is predicted, performable before a third commit deadline. An additional operation is predicted, performable for a future cycle. A total processing time for the third and additional operations is determined, being less than the remaining time. The third and additional operations are performed for use in a future cycle. The result of the third operation is used to render a third frame for the third cycle. The result of the additional operation is used to render an additional frame before a future render deadline.
