<p>
recall from last lecture:
<h1>the 4 fundamental concepts of caches</h1>
<ol>
  <li>block placement: where can a block be placed in a cache?
  <li>block identification: how is a block found if it is in cache?
  <li>block replacement: which block should be replaced in a cache miss?
  <li>write strategy: what happens on a write?
</ol>
