A vectorization approach for multifaceted solids in VecGeom / Apostolakis, John (CERN) ; Cosmo, Gabriele (CERN) ; Gheata, Andrei (CERN) ; Gheata, Mihaela (CERN ; Bucharest, Inst. Space Science) ; Sehgal, Raman (Bhabha Atomic Res. Ctr.) ; Wenzel, Sandro (CERN) /VecGeom team
VecGeom [1] is a multi-purpose geometry library targeting the optimisation of the 3D-solids’ algorithms used extensively in particle transport and tracking applications. The implementations of these algorithms are templated on the input data type and are vectorised based on the VecCore [2] abstraction library in case of multiple inputs in a SIMD vector. [...]

Speeding up software with VecCore / Amadio, G (CERN) ; Canal, P (FNAL) ; Piparo, D (CERN) ; Wenzel, S (CERN)
Portable and efficient vectorization is a significant challenge in large software projects such as GeantV, ROOT, and experiments’ frameworks. Nevertheless, fully exploiting SIMD parallelism will be a required step in order to bridge the widening gap between the needs and availability of computing resouces for data analysis and processing in particle physics.

A VecGeom navigator plugin for Geant4 / Wenzel, Sandro (CERN) ; Apostolakis, John (CERN) ; Cosmo, Gabriele (CERN)
VecGeom is a geometry modeller library with hit-detection features as needed by particle detector simulation at the LHC and beyond. It was incubated by a Geant-R&D; initiative and the motivation to combine the code of Geant4 and ROOT/TGeo into a single, better maintainable piece of software within the EU-AIDA program.So far, VecGeom is mainly used by LHC experiments as a geometry primitive library called from Geant4, where it was shown to provide 7–12% reduction in CPU time due to its faster algorithms for complex primitives [1].In this contribution, we discuss how VecGeom can be used as the navigating library in Geant4 in order to benefit from both its fast geometry primitives as well as its vectorised navigation module.

Accelerating navigation in the VecGeom geometry modeller / Wenzel, Sandro (CERN) ; Zhang, Yang (KIT, Karlsruhe, Dept. Inform.) /VecGeom Developers
The VecGeom geometry library is a relatively recent effort aiming to provide a modern and high performance geometry service for particle detector simulation in hierarchical detector geometries common to HEP experiments. One of its principal targets is the efficient use of vector SIMD hardware instructions to accelerate geometry calculations for single track as well as multi-track queries. [...]

Current and future performance of the CMS simulation / Pedro, Kevin Jerome (Fermilab) /CMS Collaboration
The CMS full simulation using Geant4 has delivered billions of simulated events for analysis during Runs 1 and 2 of the LHC. However, the HL-LHC dataset will be an order of magnitude larger, with a similar increase in occupancy per event. [...]
