Numerical software for sequential or parallel machines with memory hierarchies can benefit from locality optimizations which are usually achieved by program restructuring or program transformations. In this paper we introduce and discuss program-based locality measures which can be used to guide the restructuring and transformation process at the program level. As example we consider a popular solution method to solve ordinary differential equations provided in many scientific libraries.
