how powerful are the elements?
-
how much memory?
-
Data access, Communication and Synchronization
-
how do the elements cooperate and communicate?
-
how are data transmitted between processors?
-
what are the abstractions and primitives for cooperation?
-
Performance and Scalability
-
how does it all translate into performance?
