Zusammenfassung:This paper briefly describes the formulation of NMC′s Spectral Model and the numerical methods used in its implementation. The various segments of the numerical algorithm are analyzed for suitability to a massively parallel architecture and a computer algorithm is designed for execution on a CM-200 computer. Special emphasis is placed on the production of a fast Legendre Transform and the minimization of interprocessor communication. Performance and scalability issues are presented.
