Description: Cache management refers to the process of managing cache memory to optimize the performance of a computer system. Cache memory is a type of high-speed storage used to temporarily store frequently accessed data by the CPU. This technique reduces access time to main memory, thereby improving processing efficiency. Cache management involves decisions about what data to store, when to update it, and how to invalidate outdated entries. There are different modes in which it can operate, including those that allow for different levels of access and efficiency in managing cache. Proper cache management is crucial for the performance of operating systems, databases, and applications, as poor management can lead to bottlenecks and inefficient use of system resources.
