Abstract
As an important branch of information technology, high-performance computing has expanded its application field and its influence has been expanding. High-performance computing is always a key area of application in meteorology. We used field research and literature review methods to study the application of high performance computing in China’s meteorological department, and obtained the following results: 1) China Meteorological Department gradually established the first high-performance computer system since 1978. High-performance computing services can support operational numerical weather prediction models. 2) The Chinese meteorological department has always used the relatively advanced high-performance computing technology, and the business system capability has been continuously improved. The computing power has become an important symbol of the level of meteorological modernization. 3) High-performance computing technology and meteorological numerical forecasting applications are increasingly integrated, and continue to innovate and develop. 4) In the future, high-performance computing resource management will gradually transit from the current local pre-allocation mode to the local remote unified scheduling and shared use. In summary, we have come to the conclusion that the performance calculation business of the meteorological department will usher in a better tomorrow.

Summary
High-performance computing addresses the need for supercomputing performance through parallel computing. High-throughput, large-scale medical image computing demands tight integration of high-performance computing infrastructure for data storage, job distribution, and image processing. The Vanderbilt University Institute for Imaging Science (VUIIS) Center for Computational Imaging (CCI) has constructed large-scale image storage and processing infrastructure with HPC (Huo et al, 2018). Meteorology has always been one of the important application areas for high performance computing. Since the 1990s, the high-performance computing capabilities of the Chinese meteorological department have made great progress, and the application support capability has been continuously improved. There are few studies and summaries for the application of high performance computing in meteorology, so we will fill the gaps or adds to the existing literature. In the rest of the paper, we will elaborate on the development of high-performance computing technology, the application and development of high-performance meteorological computing, and future prospects
