摘要: A system and method for providing direct transfers of data segments between devices having local memories without the need first transferring to a central supervisory memory maintain cache coherency. Direct are performed from device second in transaction processing that includes main provide storage capability system, directory maintaining ownership status each segment memory. transfer requested is by obtain stored device. The removed response request, directly transferred also memory, where can be revised reflect change occurs independently storage.
