Abstract
The study compares different memory organizations for multiprocessor systems. The influence of local and/or cache memories on processor activities is considered. Different interconnection structures are used: busses, mono- and multistage interconnection networks. Patel's model is extended to measure the different influences. The most important parameter is the miss ratio of the cache memory. For realistic assumptions, the organization with cache and local memory is the best, but only with little distance to the model with cache only.
