Summary: In this paper, we present our research and development efforts toward a reliable, large-scale, Web-based system for hurricane analysis and simulation. The major contributions of this system lie in the following three aspects: (1) it supports the multidisciplinary research efforts in predicting and simulating the hurricane damages and insured losses; (2) it is a large-scale, distributed, Web-based system, which allows both the professional and general users to conduct computational intensive on-line analysis simultaneously and to share and exchange the information; and (3) database management techniques are employed in our system to manage the huge amount of hurricane-related historical and simulated data.
