Traditionally, cache coherence in large-scale shared-memory multiprocessors has been ensured by means of a distributed directory structure stored in main memory. In this way, the ...
Modern systems are able to put two or more processors on the same die (Chip Multiprocessors, CMP), each with its private caches, while the last level caches can be either private ...
