A Remote Cache Coherence Protocol for Single Shared Memory in Multiprocessor System
Seongwoon Kim, Bo-Gwan Kim · Journal of the Institute of Electronics Engineers of Korea · 2005
The multiprocessor architecture is a good method to improve the computer system performance. The CC-NUMA provides a single shared space with the physically distributed memories is used widely in the multiprocessor computer system. A CC-NUMA has the full-mapped directory for the shared memory md uses a remote cache memory for tile fast memory access. In this paper, we propose a processing node architecture for a CC-NUMA system and a cache coherency protocol on the physically distributed but logically shared system. We show an implementation result of the system which is adopted the cache coherency protocol.
