Hello Hamid Thanks for your reply. So each block has 64 bytes.
In the following link, Ali and Andreas have written that the underlying data could be 1-16 bytes based on size: http://qa.gem5.org/1097/problem-extracting-the-data-being-exchanged-between-cache That implies that data can never cover a whole block. But why is data between 1 and 16 bytes? Where does this 16 come from?
