Systems Architecture

Cache represents a level of memory hierarchy that’s between the processor and the main memory.

At a high level, cache focuses around the idea of prediction.

It relies heavily on the principle of locality to find the desired data and provides mechanisms so that we can ensure that it is able to use the proper data.

Two techniques that have been used to improve cache performance focuses around reducing miss rates while the second technique focuses on reducing miss penalty through multilevel caching.

Research these two techniques and compare and contrast how they are currently being used in modern processors to improve cache performance.
