....accurately capturing the identities of processors caching copies of the block. 3. 3 Cache Based Linked List Schemes A different way of addressing the scalability problem of full vector directory schemes is to keep the list of pointers in the processors caches instead of a directory next to memory [9, 16]. One such scheme is currently being formalized as the Scalable Coherent Interface [8] Each directory entry is made up of a doubly linked list. The head and tail pointer to the list are kept in memory. Each cache with a copy of the block is one item of the list with a forward and back pointer to ....
