Abstract
In a computer system, main memory is accessed via a cache. Locations in a main memory are accessed by a process with reference to addresses. Each address comprises virtual bits and physical address bits. Selected bits of the physical address bits identify areas in the cache. Permutations of the selected bits are used to identify buffer alignments in main memory, in response to an identification of requirements for the process.
