A method and system for scheduling threads on simultaneous multithreaded processors are disclosed. More specifically, the present invention relates to a DAS utilizing one or more Daisy-Chained Rings of Remote Units. The compressors compress the pixel data groups and generate a plurality of compressed pixel data groups, respectively. The partition permits fluid communication between the first composite material and the second composite material. The horizontal scanning angle is arbitrarily widened by increasing the number of TWEAs.
