Summary:Embodiments of the present invention are directed to managing a shared high-level cache for dual clusters of fully connected integrated circuit multiprocessors. An example of a computer-implemented method includes: providing a drawer comprising a plurality of clusters, each of the plurality of clusters comprising a plurality of processors; providing a shared cache integrated circuit to manage a shared cache memory among the plurality of clusters; receiving, by the shared cache integrated circuit, an operation of one of a plurality of operation types from one of the plurality of processors; and processing, by the shared cache integrated circuit, the operation based at least in part on the operation type of the operation according to a set of rules for processing the operation type.
