The Global Assembly Cache (GAC) is a machine-wide CLI assembly cache for the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) in Microsoft's .NET Framework.The approach of having a specially controlled central repository addresses the flaws [citation needed] in the shared library concept and helps to avoid pitfalls of other solutions that led to drawbacks like DLL hell.
The following method shows how to use the Cache object to retrieve data from the cache. In this example, a user identifier (userid) is the key for the associated user information object. The code first attempts to get this user information from the cache using the userid key. If that does not succeed, the code retrieves the information with a ...
The code first attempts to get this user information from the cache using the userId key. If that does not succeed, the code retrieves the information with a database query and then stores the returned user data in the cache. The next time the same code is run, the user information will be returned from the cache rather than the database.
The Download Cache, or downloaded files cache, is a component of Microsoft's .NET Framework that is similar to the Global Assembly Cache except that it caches assemblies that have been downloaded from the Internet. [1]
SmartDrive (or SMARTDRV) is a disk caching program shipped with MS-DOS versions 4.01 through 6.22 and Windows 3.0 through Windows 3.11. [1] It improves data transfer rates by storing frequently accessed data in random-access memory (RAM).
A 37-year-old manager at Microsoft says AI has changed his workflow.. AI reduced his time spent on coding by 70%, and also cut time spent on reading and meetings, he says. But given the rush to ...
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.
Microsoft has also said it plans to target low performers in a round of cuts. The shift is a tone change from mass tech layoffs in recent years, which have largely been blamed on cost-cutting.
