Abstract
A node controller is provided to include a first interface to interface with one or more processors, a second interface including a plurality of ports to interface with node controllers within a base node and other nodes in the cache-coherent interconnect network. The node controller can further include a third interface to interface with a first plurality of memory devices and a cache coherence management logic. The cache coherence management logic can maintain, based on a first circuitry, hardware-managed cache coherency in the cache-coherent interconnect network. The cache coherence management logic can further facilitate, based on a second circuitry, software-managed cache coherency in the cache-coherent interconnect network.
