A cache plays anessential role by providing fast access to the instructions and data to improve the overallperformance of the system. To demonstrate the complexity of the issue in an advanced computerarchitecture course, we used an empirical simulation study to focus on performance of multi-levelcaches and their associativity. This paper presents the result of such study. Designing andpredicting caches behavior has been subject of numerous simulation studies. Cache simulationtools provide support for diverse configurations of the system with multiple scenarios to
