The problems of achieving efficiency in middle weight computation are discussed with reference to experience in the Meteorological Office with the operational and research computations which support work on long range weather forecasting. An account is given of the reasoning behind the latest form of the METOCODE system, and of the objectives it is intended to fulfil.
