RACE on a physically distributed and logically shared memory system

The RACE (remote access cache coherency enforcement) protocol is a cache coherency protocol that uses a full-mapped directory-based cache protocol to provide a consistent memory through multi-level memory hierarchy consisting of a number of processor caches, physically distributed shared-memory, and third level caches. In this paper, we have proposed a RACE protocol which can be used in the physically distributed and logically shared memory system.
