Abstract

A graphic data processing system including at least one core for graphic data processing, capable of interpreting in graphic form or as instructions the data exchanged via a human-machine interface distributed over one or more cores.

Claims (20)

1 . A graphic data processing system, comprising:

at least two graphic data processing cores including formatting means capable of interpreting, in a graphic format or in a instruction format, data exchanged via a human-machine interface, wherein the at least two graphic data processing cores are fully or partially modularly partitioned and includes some of the formatting means, so that said formatting means are distributed between at least two cores of the at least two graphic data processing cores, wherein the formatting means comprise:

conversion means capable of converting the data exchanged via the human-machine interface, either into the graphic format or into the instruction format;

at least one processing module capable of generating the instruction format; and

display means capable of displaying the data exchanged in the graphic format, wherein said at least one processing module being coupled to the conversion means, which in turn are coupled to said display means,

wherein said processing module and at least one of said conversion means coupled to said processing module are stored in respective graphic data processing cores of the at least two graphic data processing cores that are distinct one from the other;

wherein the conversion means comprise:

at least one conformity module capable of conforming the data to an aeronautical or automotive communication and display standard; and

at least one graphics processing unit capable of receiving the data exchanged resulting from the implementation of said at least one conformity module and of converting the data exchanged into data suitable for display by the display means.

2 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein the distribution of the formatting means is configurable.

3 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein the formatting means are connected to one another by means of at least one communication system capable of authorizing the data exchanges between said formatting means.

4 . A graphical user interface for an aircraft cockpit, comprising:

at least two graphic data processing cores including formatting means capable of interpreting, in a graphic format or in a instruction format, the data exchanged via a human-machine interface, wherein the at least two graphic data processing cores are fully or partially modularly partitioned and includes some of the formatting means, so that said formatting means are distributed between at least two cores of the at least two graphic processing cores, wherein the formatting means comprise:

conversion means capable of converting the data exchanged via the human-machine interface, either into the graphic format or into the instruction format;

at least one processing module capable of generating the instructions; and

display means capable of displaying said data in the graphic format, wherein said at least one processing module being coupled to the conversion means, which in turn are coupled to said display means,

wherein said processing module and at least one of said conversion means coupled to said processing module are stored in respective graphic data processing cores of the at least two graphic processing cores that are distinct one from the other;

wherein the conversion means comprise:

at least one conformity module capable of conforming the data to an aeronautical or automotive communication and display standard; and

at least one graphics processing unit capable of receiving the data resulting from the implementation of said at least one conformity module and of converting the data exchanged into data suitable for display by the display means.
