Abstract :
In this paper, a novel full-map directory cache coherence scheme called the “hybrid full-map directory scheme” is proposed. It reduces the growth rate of the directory storage overhead from O(N 2) down to O(N√N). Moreover, the performance of the scheme is close to those of previous full-map directory schemes
