Definitions for "CcNUMA"
Cache-coherent NUMA. A NUMA model where data is coherent at the level of the cache. See NUMA.
Cache Coherent Non-Uniform Memory Access, an architecture for highly parallel systems with shared memory of varying latencies.
Cache Coherent Non-Uniform Memory Access. Machines that support this type of memory access have a physically distributed memory but logically it is shared. Because of the physical difference of the location of the data items, a data request may take a varying amount of time depending on the location of the data. As both the memory parts and the caches in such systems are distributed a mechanism is necessary to keep the data consistent system-wide. There are various techniques to enforce this (directory memory, snoopy bus protocol). When one of these techniques is implemented the system is said to be cache coherent.
