Abstract: The present invention relates to a cache flush system and the method for a cache flush performed in cache memory against at least one corresponding prescribed event in a multi-processor system. Embodiments of the present invention can reduce or minimize loads of a processor bus by performing memory read of at most a prescribed size and can increase simultaneousness of cache flush against a corresponding prescribed event by performing a cache flush directly triggered by the prescribed event thereby enabling high speed and automated cache flush algorithm.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to an apparatus including a first processor module, a second processor module, and a bus. The bus is coupled to the first processor module and the second processor module. The bus is configured to transmit both processor related communication and memory related communication. In embodiments, the first processor module includes a first central processing unit and the second processing module includes a second central processing unit. Accordingly, in embodiments of the present invention, a single bus can be used to communicate between processors and memories. The present invention is useful for real time duplication of memory, high speed duplication of memory, and/or a coherency check of memory between a first processing module and a second processing module.

Abstract: Disclosed is a clock distribution device and method in a compact PCI system based multi-processing system. A compact PCI based multi-processing system preferably includes processing signals upon mounting various circuit boards on multiple slots, even if the location of the system slot is varied, the skew of clocks transmitted to the other slots may be minimized. Accordingly, the system may be configured in a flexible manner because of such variability of the system slot's location. Further, the system may be efficiently repaired and maintained because it is possible to easily and quickly take measures in response to any failure occurring on the board mounted on the system slot.
