To resolve this issue, cache coherence must be achieved by updating the similar data at all places and this is done by a specially designed hardware known as Snoopy Cache Controller. It keeps a track of all the changes taking place in cache data and makes the necessary updation, which is done by implementing Cache consistency protocol.

This is done in two processes:

  • Write through:
    • In this method the memory content is updated as soon as the cache contents are modified simultaneously...
