Abstract

The effective cache consistency protocol plays an important role in improving the processor performance. This paper designed an improved architecture of consistency protocol for multi-core environment, adding the D-Cache virtual bus to achieve the point-to-point consistency transaction transmission which avoided the bus idle phenomenon caused by the polling query method that the broadcast consistency transaction must be observed. The experimental results show that the architecture can improve the bus utilization.
