Because microprocessors are so fast, computer architecture design has evolved towards adding various levels of caching between compute units and the main memory, in order to hide the latency of bringing the bits to the brains. We formulate the problem as a Mixed Integer Program (MIP). Since MIPs are NP-hard, some care needs to be taken.
