Abstract
Systems and methods described herein facilitate processing or rendering desktop graphics for remote desktop display in, for example, a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), by decreasing the amount of data being transferred from a graphics processing unit (GPU). More specifically, the embodiments described herein include a host for hosting virtual machines within a VDI, the host includes a GPU that is configured to access a reference frame associated with desktop graphics. The GPU is further configured to generate a current frame associated with desktop graphics. The GPU is also configured to compare the reference frame with the current frame to identify one or more changed portions of the current frame relative to the reference frame, wherein the changed portions are used for the generation of an encoded frame that is configured to be displayed.
