Abstract: E#ciently supporting a shared memory paradigm in a large-scale multiprocessor generally involves
some form of data caching. One of the drawbacks of caching shared data is the cost of
keeping the multiple copies coherent. One source of unnecessary coherency overhead is caused
by a problem known as false sharing . Unfortunately, the lack of a precise, universally accepted,
definition of false sharing hinders research to detect and eliminate the problem.
