Abstract
A memory device having a memory controller, a main memory with at least a portion comprising persistent memory, and at least two processing entities, wherein the memory controller enables the processing entities to access the main memory according to a cache coherence protocol. The cache coherency protocol can signal when the main memory is being updated and when the update has finished. The processing entities can be configured to wait for the main memory to be updated or can access previously stored memory.
