[EN] Token Coherence is a cache coherence protocol that simultaneously captures the best attributes of the traditional
approximations to coherence: direct communication between processors (like snooping-based protocols) ...

Cache coherence protocols based on tokens can provide low latency without relying on non-scalable interconnects thanks to the use of efficient requests that are unordered. However, when these unordered requests contend for ...

One cost-effective way to meet the increasing demand for larger high-performance shared-memory servers is to build clusters with off-the-shelf processors connected with low-latency point-to-point interconnections like ...

A key aspect in the design of efficient multiprocessor systems is the cache coherence protocol. Although directory-based protocols constitute the most scalable approach, the limited size of the directory caches together ...
Token Coherence is a cache coherence protocol able to simultaneously capture the best attributes of traditional protocols: low latency and scalability. However it may lose these desired features when (1) several nodes ...

Most of the data referenced by sequential and
parallel applications running in current chip multiprocessors
are referenced by only one thread and can be considered
as private data. A lot of recent proposals leverage ...
