Increasing the effectiveness of directory caches by deactivating coherence for private memory blocks
13 years 4 months ago
To meet the demand for more powerful high-performance shared-memory servers, multiprocessor systems must incorporate efficient and scalable cache coherence protocols, such as thos...
