    Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and system to cache data in a first cache and a second cache that cache data from a shared memory in a local processor node, wherein the shared memory is accessible to at least one remote processor node. A cache controller writes a block to the second cache in response to determining that the block is more likely to be accessed by the local processor node than a remote processor node. The first cache controller writes the block to the shared memory in response to determining that the block is more likely to be accessed by the one of the at least one remote processor node than the local processor node without writing to the second cache.
