Cache hierarchy

Main article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_hierarchy


 * 1) A "human" example of a cache hierarchy is: internet > human brain > working memory
 * 2) mental models usually reside in a relatively high cache hierarchy
 * 3) cache hierarchies → context switching
 * 4) different tasks that are brought up a higher cache hierarchy might require other components (from lower cache hierarchies) as well (that might have to be brought up a higher cache hierarchy as well), which increases computational/time complexity
 * 5) construal level theory → cache hierarchy
 * 6) usually, the higher the cache hierarchy, the higher the CLT
 * 7) it's also usually more optimal this way e.g. metacognition (higher-level construal) above cognition (see also: adaptive replacement cache)

Utilizes

 * 1) "pooling (ANN)"
 * 2) compactification (physics)
