Development of digitalgraphicsmostvehement in embeddedsystems Graphics performance of embedded devices, like smartphones and tablets, is growing in importance The global smartphones market is growing rapidly. Growth in 2011 for example was 61 per cent (source: IDC) Devices are used graphically for more and more demanding applications such as games, video, image editing etc. Calculation of the graphics chip performance is not enough, there is a need for more comprehensive information Accuracy, stability, compatibility with the standards etc. Test information is needed by both chip manufacturers and end user product manufacturers Product manufacturers can test the products for development and quality assurance purposes Manufacturers of end user products can test and compare the components DM
Cost-efficient and accuratetesting for the manufacturers and users of GPUs drawElementsQualityProgram (dEQP) is a software solutionfor testing the quality and features of GPU Tests the quality of executing graphics and programming interfaces against the OpenGL ES 2.0 standard Cost-efficientsolution Brings efficiency to the testing and frees up resources to other, more value-adding development. Can be integrated into testing systems that are already in use Uniquesolution No comparable products in the markets, competitors are mainly chip manufacturers' own in-house test systems DM
Strongclusterborn out of Finnishgraphicsexpertise www.drawelements.com www.tekes.fi/ohjelmat/ubicom Two new product development projects were implemented in the TekesUbicomprogramme for developing the dEQP basic technology Relative to the population, Finland has an exceptionally strong concentration of computer graphics expertise During the 1990's top Finnish companies that were specialised in GPU performance measurement were sold to major international actors drawElements is continuing this tradition Success of the Finnish gaming industry is also partly related to the graphics expertise DM
