I have a question regarding the term "local" in MOESI_CMP_directory-L2cache.sm. Does the term "local" refer to the processor or L2 bank? It's not clear to me what local sharers, local exclusive, or local owner refer to. For example, when it says "local sharers", does it mean the processors on the local chip?

Yes.   local refers to "an on-chip L1 cache"
