| Abstract: | Disc caching is a well-accepted technique designed to speed access to disc storage. For the first time, it is being applied to personal computers. The problem in the past has been designing and implementing caching algorithms. There are two types, prefetch and replacement. Both try to provide an optimum choice of what data to keep in cache memory and to predict future data accesses. A UK company has addressed the problem and claims to have radically improved access time. |
