ABSTRACT:
A multiprocessor system has a plurality of serial system buses arranged in parallel to which is connected a large number of system components (PSK1, PSK, SSK). The system components (PSK1, PSKm, SSK) are processor system components (PSK1, PSKm) having cache memories and memory system components. Every system component (PSK1, PSKm, SSK) is connected to every serial system bus. The processor system components (PSK1, PSKm) have the capability for maintaining the consistency of the contents of the cache memories for every serial high-speed bus (SB1, SBn-1, SBn).
