cache
In computing, a cache is a hardware or software component that stores data so that future requests for that data can be served faster; the data stored in a cache might be the result of an earlier computation or a copy of data stored elsewhere.
cores
A multi-core processor is a microprocessor on a single integrated circuit with two or more separate central processing units, called cores to emphasize their multiplicity. Each core reads and executes program instructions, specifically ordinary CPU instructions.
clock speed
In computing, the clock rate or clock speed typically refers to the frequency at which the clock generator of a processor can generate pulses, which are used to synchronize the operations of its components, and is used as an indicator of the processor's speed. It is measured in the SI unit of frequency hertz.

Cache memory purpose
Cache memory is used to improve the processing speed and efficiency of a computer system. It does this by temporarily storing frequently accessed or recently used data from the main memory (RAM) in a smaller, faster storage area that is closer to the CPU.
CPU definitions
The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the primary component of a computer that acts as its “control center.” The CPU, also referred to as the “central” or “main” processor, is a complex set of electronic circuitry that runs the machine's operating system and apps.
Embedded systems
An embedded system is a specialized computer system—a combination of a computer processor, computer memory, and input/output peripheral devices—that has a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electronic system.
