Scaling of HPC system (compared to itself, and other HPC and non HPC systems) 2. Capabilities of HPC system(hardware+software) compared to other HPC and non HPC systems) 3. Productivity of new HPC system implementation (compared to other HPC and non HPC) 4. Price of running new HPC system. (compared to other HPC systems and non HPC systems) By putting measurement criteria in place (money) it is not so complicated to answer to all these questions.
