Abstract

A graphic display module operating on a first device prepares graphic data to be displayed on a wirelessly connected display adapter that includes graphics processing capability. The display adapter transmits metadata to the graphic display module that includes the graphic processing capabilities of the display adapter. The graphic display module uses the metadata, and possibly the available bandwidth, to selectively delegate graphic processing tasks to the display adapter.
