Abstract
Data coherency in a multiprocessor system is improved and data latency minimized through the use of data mapping “fill” requests from any one of the multiprocessor CPUs such that the information requested is acquired through the crossbar switch from the same memory module to which the “victim” data in that CPU's cache must be rewritten. With such an arrangement rewrite latency periods for victim data within the crossbar switch is minimized and the 'ships crossing in the night' problem is avoided.
