Definition: Large multiprocessors refer to systems with multiple processors that share a common memory space and can perform tasks simultaneously. They are designed to improve computational power and efficiency by distributing workloads across several CPUs. 2. Architecture: Typically utilize a shared memory architecture, where all processors can access a global memory. Can be organized in various topologies, such as bus, crossbar, or mesh configurations. 3. Scalability: Large multiprocessors are designed to scale effectively, supporting an increasing number of processors while maintaining performance. B. Memory Coherence 1. Definition: Memory coherence ensures that all processors see a consistent view of memory, even when multiple processors can read and write to shared memory. 2. Issues: Without proper coherence mechanisms, different processors may cache copies of the same memory location, leading to inconsistencies. Examples of issues include stale data, where one processor's view of a memory location is outdated. C. Directory-Based Cache Coherence Protocols 1. Overview: Directory protocols are designed to manage the coherence of caches in a multiprocessor system. They maintain a directory that keeps track of the status of cache lines and their ownership across multiple caches. 2. Functionality: The directory records which processors have cached copies of a particular memory block. It helps coordinate read and write operations to ensure that all processors access the most current data. 3. Components: Directory: Centralized or distributed structure that tracks cache states. Cache States: Typically include states like "Exclusive," "Shared," and "Modified," indicating the status of cached data. D. Types of Directory Protocols 1. Centralized Directory Protocols: A single directory manages the cache coherence for all processors. Simplifies implementation but may become a bottleneck as the number of processors increases. 2. Distributed Directory Protocols: Each memory block has its own directory, distributed across the processors. Reduces bottleneck issues and allows for more scalable designs. E. Protocol Operations 1. Read Operations: When a processor requests a read, it checks its local cache first. If the data is not present, it consults the directory to determine where to find the data. The directory will inform the requesting processor whether it can access the data directly from another cache or if it needs to retrieve it from main memory. 2. Write Operations: For writes, the directory must ensure that no other processor has a cached copy of the data unless it is invalidated. Write operations may require broadcasting invalidation messages to other caches holding the same data. 3. Invalidation Protocols: Invalidate the cache entries in other processors when a write occurs. Ensures that only one processor has a valid copy of the modified data. F. Advantages of Directory Protocols 1. Scalability: Can efficiently manage coherence in large systems with many processors. Reduces the need for broadcasting messages, minimizing network traffic. 2. Flexibility: Can adapt to different configurations and topologies in multiprocessor systems. Suitable for diverse applications and workloads. 3. Performance: Provides improved performance through reduced latency in accessing shared data. Enhances overall system throughput by minimizing coherence overhead. 🚨Thanks for visiting classpdfindia✨ A place for 😇Nerd, where you can keep yourself updated to education, notes, books and daily trends. 💗For more updates follow us 💌comment below for more new topics & support us😍 Tags: b.tech, COMPUTER ORGANIZATION AND DESIGN, coursera, cse, cse211, Digital Systems, notes 4.8 / 3736 rates  Facebook  Tweet  Copy  Share Post a Comment  Enter your comment...  Previous Post Next Post  FAMILY myskillupdater classpdfindia is a site intended to promote education through mytrendvortex book review, exam notes, interviews, discussions, video essays and analytical compilations.
