We discuss the design of cache oblivious stencil computations for finite-difference methods in
1-dimensional space and time. We employ our cache oblivious spacetime traversal to obtain
several fully cache oblivious algorithms. We focus on the practical aspects of the software engineering
chores that today's superscalar architectures impose on high performance programming.
