Cache Memory

  • Program and data are loaded to RAM from secondary storage because the time required to access a program instruction or piece of data from RAM is significantly less than from secondary storage.
- program and data 程序和数据
- be loaded to 被加载到
- secondary storage 二级存储器
- the time required 所需的时间
- access a program instruction 访问程序指令
- piece of data 数据片/数据段
程序和数据从辅助存储器加载到RAM中,因为从RAM中访问程序指令或数据所需的时间比从辅助存储器中访问要少得多。
  • RAM is essentially a high-speed holding area for data and programs.
RAM本质上是一个高速存储数据和程序的区域。
- essentially 本质上
- a high-speed holding area for data and programs
  • In fact, nothing really happens in a computer system until the program instructions and data are moved to the processor.
- nothing really happends 什么都不会发生
  • This transfer of instruction and data to the processor can be time-consuming, even at microsecond speeds.
- transfer 转移 eg: technology transfer 技术转移 transfer coefficient 转移系数
- time-consuming adj. 耗时的;旷日持久的 eg: a time-consuming job 耗时的工作; 耗时的任务
- microsecond n. 微妙
  • To facilitate an even faster transfer of instructions and data to the processor, most computers are designed with cache memory.
- facilitate v. 使更容易;促进;推动
  • Cache memory is employed by computer designers to increase the computer system throughput(the rate at which work is performed).
- be employed by 被雇佣
- computer designers 计算机设计师
- computer system throughput 计算机系统吞吐量
- the rate at which work is performed. 完成工作的速率
  • With only a fraction of the capacity of RAM, cache memory holds only those instructions and data that are likely to be needed next by the processor.
- a fraction of 一小部分;一部分
- the capacity of ... ...能力;....容量
- cache memory 高速缓冲存储器
- instructions and data 指令和数据
- be likely to be 很有可能
  • Two types of cache memory appear widely in computers
- two types of cache memory 两种类型的高速缓冲存储器
- appear widely in computers 广泛出现在电脑中
  • The first is referred to as internal cache and is built into the CPU chip.
- be referred to 被提及
- internal cache 内部缓存
- be built into 使成为(计划、系统或协议的)组成部分
  • A computer can have several different levels of cache memory.
- several different levels of 几个不同的水平
一台计算机可以有几个不同级别的高速缓存存储器。
