  2. Locality of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locality_of_reference

    In computer science, locality of reference, also known as the principle of locality, [1] is the tendency of a processor to access the same set of memory locations repetitively over a short period of time. [2] There are two basic types of reference locality – temporal and spatial locality.

  3. Memory hierarchy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_hierarchy

    Most modern CPUs are so fast that for most program workloads, the bottleneck is the locality of reference of memory accesses and the efficiency of the caching and memory transfer between different levels of the hierarchy [citation needed]. As a result, the CPU spends much of its time idling, waiting for memory I/O to complete.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_coherence

    Cache coherence is the discipline which ensures that the changes in the values of shared operands (data) are propagated throughout the system in a timely fashion. [2] The following are the requirements for cache coherence: [3] Write Propagation Changes to the data in any cache must be propagated to other copies (of that cache line) in the peer ...

  6. Cache placement policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_placement_policies

    Set-associative cache is a trade-off between direct-mapped cache and fully associative cache. A set-associative cache can be imagined as a n × m matrix. The cache is divided into ‘n’ sets and each set contains ‘m’ cache lines. A memory block is first mapped onto a set and then placed into any cache line of the set.

  8. 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 ...
