Mapping function is a process of locating or transferring of information or files.










Direct mapping:
In direct mapping the RAM is made use of to store data and some is stored in the cache.
An address space is split into two parts index field and tag field. The cache is used to store the
tag field whereas the rest is stored in the main memory. Direct mapping`s performance is directly
proportional to the Hit ratio.
