Explain the difference between write through and write back
cache.

Answer Posted / me

Write Through. After writing in cache memory, main memory is
updated too inmediatly to mantain reliability

Write Back After writing in cache memory a flag bit called
dirty bit is set. When this value need to be replaced that
bit is check, if it is set then the value is taken to main
memory
