SUMMARY
Direct mapping and set associative mapping are two cache mapping techniques used in CPU cache architecture. Direct mapping assigns each block of main memory to exactly one cache line, while set associative mapping allows a block to be stored in any line within a specific set of cache lines. Set associative mapping provides a balance between complexity and performance, reducing cache misses compared to direct mapping. Understanding these differences is crucial for optimizing cache performance in computer systems.
