  2. Level of detail (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_of_detail_(computer...

    As a simple example, consider a sphere.A discrete LOD approach would cache a certain number of models to be used at different distances. Because the model can trivially be procedurally generated by its mathematical formulation, using a different number of sample points distributed on the surface is sufficient to generate the various models required.

  3. Garbage collection (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_collection...

    When it becomes half full, a garbage collection is performed which moves the live objects into the other half and the remaining objects are implicitly deallocated. The running program (the 'mutator') has to check that any object it references is in the correct half, and if not move it across, while a background task is finding all of the objects.

  4. Cache replacement policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_replacement_policies

    In computing, cache replacement policies (also known as cache replacement algorithms or cache algorithms) are optimizing instructions or algorithms which a computer program or hardware-maintained structure can utilize to manage a cache of information. Caching improves performance by keeping recent or often-used data items in memory locations ...

  7. Cache coloring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_coloring

    Illustration of cache coloring. Left is virtual memory spaces, center is the physical memory space, and right is the CPU cache.. A physically indexed CPU cache is designed such that addresses in adjacent physical memory blocks take different positions ("cache lines") in the cache, but this is not the case when it comes to virtual memory; when virtually adjacent but not physically adjacent ...

    A browser's cache stores temporary website files which allows the site to load faster in future sessions. This data will be recreated every time you visit the webpage, though at times it can become corrupted. Clearing the cache deletes these files and fixes problems like outdated pages, websites freezing, and pages not loading or being ...

  9. Least frequently used - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_frequently_used

    Least Frequently Used (LFU) is a type of cache algorithm used to manage memory within a computer. The standard characteristics of this method involve the system keeping track of the number of times a block is referenced in memory. When the cache is full and requires more room the system will purge the item with the lowest reference frequency.
