SYSTEM WITH CACHE-COHERENT MEMORY AND SERVER-LINKING SWITCH - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18381571 titled 'SYSTEM WITH CACHE-COHERENT MEMORY AND SERVER-LINKING SWITCH

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system and method for managing memory resources. The system includes a first server, a second server, and a server-linking switch. The first server has a stored-program processing circuit, a cache-coherent switch, and a first memory module. The first memory module is connected to the cache-coherent switch, the cache-coherent switch is connected to the server-linking switch, and the stored-program processing circuit is connected to the cache-coherent switch.

  • The system manages memory resources in a computer system.
  • It includes multiple servers and a server-linking switch.
  • The first server has a stored-program processing circuit, a cache-coherent switch, and a first memory module.
  • The first memory module is connected to the cache-coherent switch.
  • The cache-coherent switch is connected to the server-linking switch.
  • The stored-program processing circuit is connected to the cache-coherent switch.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be applied in data centers and server farms to efficiently manage memory resources.
  • It can be used in cloud computing environments to optimize memory usage and improve overall system performance.
  • It can be implemented in high-performance computing systems to enhance memory management and data processing capabilities.

Problems Solved:

  • The system addresses the challenge of effectively managing memory resources in complex computer systems.
  • It solves the problem of coordinating memory access and ensuring cache coherence between multiple servers.
  • It provides a solution for efficiently utilizing memory modules and reducing memory access latency.

Benefits:

  • Improved memory management and resource utilization.
  • Enhanced system performance and responsiveness.
  • Reduced memory access latency and improved data processing speed.
  • Increased scalability and flexibility in managing memory resources.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system and method for managing memory resources. In some embodiments the system includes a first server, a second server, and a server-linking switch connected to the first server and to the second server. The first server may include a stored-program processing circuit, a cache-coherent switch, and a first memory module. In some embodiments, the first memory module is connected to the cache-coherent switch, the cache-coherent switch is connected to the server-linking switch, and the stored-program processing circuit is connected to the cache-coherent switch.
