摘要
Technologies for managing cache memory of a processor in a distributed shared memory system includes managing a distance value and an age value associated with each cache line of the cache memory. The distance value is indicative of a distance of a memory resource, relative to the processor, from which data stored in the corresponding chance line originates. The age value is based on the distance value and the number of times for which the corresponding cache line has been considered for eviction since a previous eviction of the corresponding cache line. Initially, the age value is set to the distance value. Additionally, every time a cache line is accessed, the age value associated with the accessed cache line is reset to the corresponding distance value. During a cache eviction operation, the cache line for eviction is selected based on the age value associated with each cache line. The age values of cache lines not selected for eviction are subsequently decremented such that even cache lines associated with remote memory resources will eventually be considered for eviction if not recently accessed.
