Abstract: This paper focus on cost/effectiveness of these two prefetching techniques in the field scientific of computing. Typically theses codes exhibit a high utilization of vectors and data streams with large data set. At first glance they are ideally targeted for prefetching, but some performance variations are induced by cache hierarchy, spatial locality or bandwidth limitation (Update)
