Session 1
Title: CPU Cache and Cache Line Optimizations
Short description: Lets take a look at one of the most expensive types of memory; the CPU cache. We'll learn more about what it is, how it works, where it fits into the processing pipeline and the overall architecture; then learn how to make it more effective.
