In this paper, we compare two analytical models for evaluation of cache coherence overhead of a shared bus multiprocessor with private caches. The models are based on a closed queuing network with different service disciplines. We find that the priority discipline can be used as a lower-level bound. Some numerical results are shown graphically.
