4. When a system writes a datum to cache, it must at some
point write that datum to backing store as well. The
timing of this write is controlled by what is known as
the write policy.
There are two basic writing approaches:
Write-through - Write is done synchronously both to
the cache and to the backing store.
Write-back- Writing is done only to the cache. A
modified cache block is written back to the store, just
before it is replaced.
