Towards Hierarchical Cluster based Cache Coherence for Large-Scale Network-on-Chip

• We introduce a novel hierarchical cluster based cache coherence scheme for large-scale NoC based distributed memory architectures. We describe the hierarchical memory organization. We show analytically that the proposed scheme has better performance than traditional counterparts both in memory overhead and communication cost.
