Abstract
A system for supporting graphics display sessions on remote terminals contains a processing subsystem dedicated to graphics support. Applications execute on a central processor, and display related graphics commands are executed on the separate graphics controller subsystem. The graphics subsystem is preferably connected to multiple remote terminals over a network, and communicates with them without requiring all work to be performed by the central processor which is executing the applications.
