Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for associating and storing a code fragment for each cell of a table for a protocol specification in a semantic mapping corresponding to the table, and automatically generating a formal model for the protocol specification using the table and the semantic mapping. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention includes a directory to aid in maintaining control of a cache coherency protocol. The directory can be coupled to multiple caching agents via an interconnect, and be configured to store a entries associated with cache lines. The directory also includes logic to determine a time delay before the directory can send a concurrent snoop request. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to a fairness mechanism for starvation prevention in directory-based cache coherence protocols are described. In one embodiment, negatively-acknowledged (nack'ed) requests from a home agent may be tracked (e.g., using distributed linked-lists). In turn, the tracked requests may be served in a fair order. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: A system and method for implementing a cache coherency protocol are described. The system includes a first caching agent to send a first cache request to a home agent. The system also includes the home agent including a queue to store the first cache request.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for ensuring efficient validation coverage of an architecture, such as protocol or interconnect architecture, is herein described. A coverage space of states for an architecture is generated and stored in a database. During simulation, states of the coverage space encountered are marked. From this, the states encountered and not encountered may be determined. Based on the states not encountered, a targeted test suite is developed to target at least some of the states not encountered during previous simulation. This feedback loop from simulation to refining of a test suite based on states of a coverage space not encountered during simulation may be recursively repeated until adequate validation, i.e. an adequate confidence level of validation, of the coverage space is achieved.
