/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. [...]

SIMD acceleration can potentially boost by factors the application throughput. Achieving efficient SIMD vectorization for scalar code with complex data flow and branching logic, goes however way beyond breaking some loop dependencies and relying on the compiler. [...]

In the fall 2016, GeantV went through a thorough community evaluation of the project status and of its strategy for sharing the R&D; results with the LHC experiments and with the HEP simulation community in general. Following this discussion, GeantV has engaged onto an ambitious 2-year road-path aiming to deliver a beta version that has most of the final design and several performance features of the final product, partially integrated with some of the experiment’s frameworks.

Ctr.) ; Bianchini, C (Sao Paulo, IFT ; Mackenzie Presbiteriana U.) ; Brun, R (CERN) ; Canal, P (Fermilab) ; Carminati, F (CERN) et al.
The GeantV project aims to research and develop the next-generation simulation software describing the passage of particles through matter. While the modern CPU architectures are being targeted first, resources such as GPGPU, Intel© Xeon Phi, Atom or ARM cannot be ignored anymore by HEP CPU-bound applications. [...]

Towards a high performance geometry library for particle-detector simulations

Thread-parallelisation and single-instruction multiple data (SIMD) ”vectorisation” of software components in HEP computing has become a necessity to fully benefit from current and future computing hardware. In this context, the Geant-Vector/GPU simulation project aims to re-engineer current software for the simulation of the passage of particles through detectors in order to increase the overall event throughput.

Adaptive track scheduling to optimize concurrency and vectorization in GeantV

The GeantV project is focused on the R&D; of new particle transport techniques to maximize parallelism on multiple levels, profiting from the use of both SIMD instructions and co-processors for the CPU-intensive calculations specific to this type of applications. In our approach, vectors of tracks belonging to multiple events and matching different locality criteria must be gathered and dispatched to algorithms having vector signatures. [...]

During 2013 and 2014 (Long Shutdown LS1) the CMS experiment is upgrading the forward region installing a fourth layer of RPC detectors in order to complete and improve the muon system performances in the view of the foreseen high luminosity run of LHC. The new two endcap disks consists of 144 double-gap RPC chambers assembled at three different production sites: CERN, Ghent (Belgium) and BARC (India). [...]
