Abstract
A first processor chip includes one or more processor cores, one or more cache memories, and a restricted-access memory storing a remote access vector configured to track copies of data portions that are stored in a main memory. The remote access vector includes multiple bits. Each bit of the multiple bits corresponds respectively to one of different remote processing nodes that are able to request and receive one or more of the copies of the data portions and are external to the first processor chip. The bits are respectively set when a respective copy of a particular data portion is transmitted to the corresponding remote processing node.
