Abstract
The computational systems (multi and uni-processors) need to avoid the cache coherence problem. The problem of cache coherence is solved by today`s multiprocessors by implementing a cache coherence protocol. The cache coherence protocol affects the performance of a distributed shared memory multiprocessor system. This paper discusses several different varieties of cache coherence protocols including with their pros and cons, the way they are organized, common protocol transitions, and some examples of systems that implement those protocols
