Abstract
A method of configuring a cache includes identifying a plurality of cache configurations of a configurable cache for a processor-executable application unit. Each configuration has an associated error rate. A selected configuration is selected based at least in part on the associated error rate. The configurable cache is configured in accordance with the selected configuration for execution of the application-unit.
