Abstract
Systems, apparatus, and method of monitoring synchronization in a distributed cache are described. In an exemplary embodiment, a first and second processing core process a first and second thread respectively. A first and second distributed cache slices store data for either or both of the first and second processing cores. A first and second core interface co-located with the first and second processing cores respectively maintain a finite state machine (FSM) to be executed in response to receiving a request from a thread of its co-located processing core to monitor a cache line in the distributed cache.
