Abstract & Background | Abstract Parallel Algorithm is an important research area in computer science, with a development history of several decades. Based on the research history with downturn and climax, the authors figure out the reason for that is absent of a research methodology on parallel algorithms. This paper concludes research on parallel algorithms should establish a complete system of "Theory-Design-Implementation-Applications", which is ecological environment of parallel algorithms research. Only in this way can we maintain the steady and sustainable development of parallel algorithms research. Moreover, the results of research on parallel algorithms will be more practical and more full of vitality.
