The principal states that an already accessed memory location is accessed further again and it is also more likely that adjacent memory locations will also be accessed. The principle states that memory can be accessed simultaneously and in parallel on the basis of data content rather than by specific address or location. This principle help to reduce the average access time, and increase cache memory hits. Which of the above statements is/are TRUE? I only II only II and III only I and III only CO and Architecture tbb-coa-2 co-and-architecture cache-memory + – Bikram asked May 27, 2017 • edited Sep 20, 2020 by ajaysoni1924 Bikram 273 views answer comment Share Follow See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.

It increases cache hit by bringing more words into a cache block, though it reduces average access time.
