Numerical weather prediction on the one hand needs a very large
number of floating point calculations, but on the other hand is
very time-critical. Therefore, the largest computers available,
i.e., the "supercomputers," have usually been acquired by the
national meteorological services long before they were used in
other fields of research or business. Since the available
technology limits the speed of any single computer, parallel
computations have become necessary to achieve further improvements
in the number of results produced per time unit. This book collects
the papers presented at two workshops held at ECMWF on the topic of
parallel processing in meteorological models. It provides an
insight into the state-of-the-art in using parallel processors
operationally and allows extrapolation to other time-critical
applications. It also shows trends in migrating to massive parallel
systems in the near future.
