;
(c) writing a new data segment from the
cache memory to the primary memory by linking said new data segment to a sequentially previous logical data segment by the following steps:
(1) receiving the new data segment in the
cache memory ;
(2) moving the new data segment from the
cache memory to a next available space within primary memory such that the new
