Abstract: The concept of memory caching is among the most important and effective techniques used to im-prove system performance.The recent introduction of RISC processors, in which performance is directly tied to effective memory access rate, further expands the area where cache is used.This paper cites issues concerning cache design which might be important to a high performance RISC System.The cache design of HUASUN 4000 RISC workstation family is given as an example.
