In this paper, we discuss scalability of parallel systems from three aspects and point out some of the weakness of several existing main schemes for scalability. As an extension to the isoefficiency metric and isospeed metric , we present and define scalability of parallel algorithm implementation, and analyze some relevant theoretical perspectives.
