Abstract
An apparatus for scalable image processing includes a display, multiple graphics functional units and a mode selector. Each of the graphics functional units has a configuration of a predetermined type to control the display. The mode selector determines which combination of graphics functional units controls the display. A method for scalable image processing includes monitoring at least one parameter, determining whether to switch from one graphics functional unit configuration to a new graphics functional unit configuration based upon one or more of the parameters, and switching to the new graphics functional unit configuration.
