We explore key design space elements: criteria (such as scalability) and factors (such as social-awareness of ties, and location-awareness) to achieve the highest possible privacy level under different network conditions and nodes' requirements.
The enabling factors include the performance, scalability, and price factor of today's merchant silicon to implement high-speed forwarding devices combined with the processing capabilities of general purpose multi-core server technology.
As scalability is an important factor in nowadays applications, we believe that cooperation (over communication) is an important factor to consider in the conception of a foraging system.
"Being able to address all those things — performance, form factor and scalability — is what sets us apart," Talukdar said.

Scalability is a key factor of the design of distributed systems and parallel algorithms and machines.
In this paper, to obtain a high factor of scalability, we partition network search space using a consistent static shared upper ontology.
Another factor limiting scalability is the system's inability to cope with transient system problems and failed cluster nodes, either of which would simply result in a failed job.
