 satellite assemblies only 
contain resource files. They do not contain any application code. In the 
satellite assembly deployment model, you create an application with one default 
assembly (which is the main assembly) and several satellite assemblies. You 
should create one satellite assembly for each culture that the application 
supports. Because the satellite assemblies are not part of the main assembly, 
you can easily replace or update resources corresponding to a specific culture 
without replacing the application's main assembly.
 

There are several advantages to this model: 
 
You can incrementally add resources for new cultures after you have 
deployed an application. Because subsequent development of culture-specific 
resources can require a significant amount of time, this allows you to release 
your main application first, and deliver culture-specific resources at a later 
date. 
You can update and change an application's satellite assemblies 
without recompiling the application. 
An application needs to load only those 
satellite assemblies that contain the resources needed for a particular culture. 
This can significantly reduce the use of system resources. 
However, there 
are also disadvantages to this model: 
 
You must manage multiple sets of resources. 
The initial cost of testing 
an application increases, because you must test several configurations. Note 
that in the long term it will be easier and less expensive to test one core 
application with several satellites, than to test and maintain several parallel 
international versions. 
 
 
 

global assembly cache (GAC) 
A machine-wide code cache that stores 
assemblies specifically installed to be shared by many applications on the 
computer. Applications deployed in the global assembly cache must have a strong 
name.

              All,
               
              1.What are satelite assemblies in 
              .NET
              2.What is GAC(i mean to say is it 
              memory area? or something else
               
              Thanks and Regards,
