# 2.2.3 Software Processes

The software process is illustrated here:

## Graphics Microcode Process

Graphics microcode, transferred from RDRAM to the RSP, performs image transformations in the RSP.

## Library Process

Graphics library functions interpret the image data, create the display list, and transfer the display list to RSP in the RCP.

## Application Process

The game application itself sets up the RCP and controls the image drawing process by specifying such things as image placement and special effects.
