I'm currently carrying out research into cache techniques and program
behaviour as part of my final year project.

I need to identify different areas of program behaviour and how this
affects cache accesses.  My main problem so far has been identifying 
"typical" examples of programs.

I will eventually produce a "simulation" of a data cache and allow users
to change aspects of it in order to monitor the effects.

Can anyone suggest the best approach to take or recommend places to look 
for info?

Thanks.
