Multi-Core Processor: Resolution, The Higher Is The Quality of The Image. We Can

The document discusses the cache hierarchy in modern CPUs. It explains that CPUs typically have split L1 caches for instructions and data, as well as L2 and sometimes L3 caches. The L2 cache is usually not split and acts as a common repository. Each core has its own dedicated L2 cache. Higher level caches like L3 are shared between cores. Larger caches allow integration of cache levels on the same chip. Bigger caches have larger memory sizes and store more instructions to improve processor performance, though cache is costly.

The pixel (a word invented from "picture element") is


the basic unit of programmable color on a computer display or in
a computer image. Think of it as a logical - rather than a physical
- unit. The physical size of a pixel depends on how you've set
the resolution for the display screen. In pixel resolution, the
term resolution refers to the total number of count of pixelsin an
digital image. ... We can say that the higher is the pixel
resolution, the higher is the quality of the image. We can
define pixel resolution of an image as 4500 X 5500. A pixel is
the smallest unit of a digital image or graphic that can be
displayed and represented on a digital display device.
A pixel is the basic logical unit in digital graphics. Pixels are
combined to form a complete image, video, text or any visible
thing on a computer display.
A pixel is also known as a picture element

A CPU cache[1] is a hardware cache used by the central processing


unit (CPU) of a computer to reduce the average cost (time or energy) to
access data from the main memory. A cache is a smaller, faster memory,
closer to a processor core, which stores copies of the data from frequently
used main memory locations. Most CPUs have different independent
caches, including instruction and data caches, where the data cache is
usually organized as a hierarchy of more cache levels (L1, L2, L3, L4,
etc.).

All modern (fast) CPUs (with few specialized exceptions[2]) have multiple
levels of CPU caches. The first CPUs that used a cache had only one level
of cache; unlike later level 1 caches, it was not split into L1d (for data) and
