2018-09-07mem-cache: Create Skewed Assoc placement policyDaniel R. Carvalho
Create a class that implements the skewed associative placement policy. It uses the hash function and expansions of the skewing functions described in "Skewed-Associative caches", by Seznec. Only 8 skewing functions are implemented, and therefore if more are needed a hash function will be recursively applied on top of the output of one of these functions to generate different values. This is not optimal, and if more functions are needed it might be more effective to implement them.
