Where is frequently accessed data stored?
Frequently accessed data is often stored in a cache memory, which is a smaller, faster type of memory that sits between the main memory (RAM) and the processor. Caching helps improve performance by allowing the processor to access frequently used data more quickly than if it had to retrieve it from the main memory every time.
The process of keeping addresses in memory for future use is called?
Caching
Memory cache is referred to as SRAM?
Yes it is true that memory caching is a method used to store data or programs in SRAM for quick retrieval. The North Bridge is the faster end of the hub that contains the graphics and memory controller.
How do cache memory improve the system performance?
Caches are meant to improve memory access performance of the computer system. There are hardware caches implemented as well software caching is also done in Operating system to improve performance.
What is Principle of locality?
The principle of locality states that programs tend to access data and instructions that are near each other in memory. This principle is the basis for memory caching strategies to improve performance by storing frequently accessed data closer to the processor. By exploiting spatial and temporal locality, memory access patterns can be optimized for faster processing.
Distinguish between a Magnetic Core Memory and a Semiconductor Memory?

What is web-caching?
Web caching is the caching of web documents (e.g., HTML pages, images) in order to reduce bandwidth usage, server load, and perceived lag. A web cache stores copies of documents passing through it; subsequent requests may be satisfied from the cache if certain conditions are met. Actuality not all of the documents will be stored in it, but just the most common webs that most of the clients load it,because the memory size of the web caching is smaller than the memory size in server.
How does caching affects the computer?
I think...the above Question you asked in which case ..are you focessing over Graphics or Perfomace based..., Actually Cache is the Excellent Feautre in Processor....,HIgh Availablity of Cache Improves the Perfomance... The cache is a smaller, faster memory which stores copies of the data from the most frequently used main memory locations. As long as most memory accesses are cached memory locations, the average latency of memory accesses will be closer to the cache latency than to the latency of main memory.
Cached what is it?
Memory caching is effective because most programs access the same data or instructions over and over.
What stores information on magnetic cylinders?
Magnetic drum memory or magnetic drum storage, a type of computer memory/storage that is now long obsolete.
Which type of memory is primarily used in cache memory?
Cache memory is composed of 2 types of memory:RAM (Random Access Memory) this is used to store the data copied from main RAM as a series of Cache LinesCAM (Content Addressable Memory) this is used to store the main RAM address for each Cache Line, so the data in Cache Memory can be found and associated with main RAM. The CAM also typically contains special flags (e.g. the "dirty" bit - indicating that the Cache Line has been modified and will have to be written back to main RAM).Cache memory also contains controller logic to coordinate the necessary actions.The first computer built to have what we now call Cache memory was the IBM Stretch 7030 introduced in 1961. However IBM at the time called this feature "Virtual memory". (Confusing isn't it?)
What was full name RAM?
Random Access Memory, as verses Sequential Access Memory (delay lines, magnetic tape, magnetic drum, magnetic disk, etc.)
