Temporal Upscaling Compatibility Study

Modern GPUs have widespread upscaling tech (DLSS, FSR) and frame generation, but developers rarely understand how to structure code for compatibility. Student and indie projects frequently break temporal reconstruction (ghosting, smearing, stuttering) due to inconsistent frame pacing, unstable motion vectors, and non-deterministic simulation.
  • Fixed-timestep simulation producing deterministic output across frame rates
  • Per-frame AI workload budgeting with task prioritization
  • Temporal coherence validation framework measuring motion vector stability
  • DLSS/FSR integration with quality/performance trade-off analysis
  • Automated performance reporting (frame-time distribution, CPU/GPU utilization)

Software Design Patterns for Temporal Upscaling Compatibility and Performance in Real-Time Games

Research paper investigating how modern GPU capabilities (Blackwell architecture, AI-driven rendering) reshape game development workflows. Analyzes DLSS, FSR, and frame generation technologies, examines how Unreal Engine 5 and Unity adapt their architectures, and identifies three core software patterns required for upscaler compatibility.
