Computer Architecture and Maintenance (G-Scheme-2014)
When the processor needs to read from or write to a location in main memory, it first
checks whether a copy of that data is in the cache. If so, the processor immediately
reads from or writes to the cache, which is much faster than reading from or writing to
main memory.
The CPU
uses cache
memory to store
instructions that
are repeatedly
required to run
programs,
improving overall
system speed. The
advantage of
cache memory is
that the CPU does
