The comprehensive earth-system model developed at ECMWF forms the basis
for all the data assimilation and forecasting activities. All the main
applications required are available through one integrated computer software
system (a set of computer programs written in Fortran) called the Integrated
Forecast System or IFS.
This section includes a brief history and the full evolution of the ECMWF
analysis and forecasting system. Some representative snapshots of specific
models during the evolution of the ECMWF system in use are also available.
