5 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is cache memory?
Think about memory types surrounding the CPU.
Explain the hit ratio.
Consider what happens during a successful memory request.
What is the purpose of cache memory?
Think about how data access speed affects computer performance.
In direct mapping, a memory block can only map to one cache line. True or False?
Consider how direct mapping restricts assignment.
Given a main memory space of 32KB with a cache of 4KB and each block size of 64 bytes, create a mapping diagram and calculate the hit and miss ratio after a defined sequence of memory accesses.
Consider how to relate block sizes to data points.
Analyze a scenario where a single cache line requires multiple blocks to access sequentially and the impact this has on system performance.
What happens when multiple blocks compete for the same line?
