Abstract
There are various kinds of applications if one can develop a remote execution system using for legacy 3D APIs. It can be used in implementing a cloud gaming service based on the real-time video streaming technology. Or, it can also be used in implementing a GPU virtualization for simultaneously rendering of many different 3D applications. The OpenGL API consists of independent global functions while the Direct3D API consists of Microsoft COM-based interfaces and their member functions, which makes the implementation of remote rendering system more difficult. The purpose of the paper is to show the applicability of the technology to any legacy 3D API by successfully designing and implementing a remote rendering system using the Direct3D API. It applies the implementation to a sample Direct3D application and also performs a few experimentations to show the technical feasibility.
