Description

Modern GPUs can concurrently execute threads and manage diverging tasks, enabling developers to write more sophisticated algorithms than ever before. In this talk, I will present a parallelised Sudakov veto algorithm capable of generating emissions simultaneously for multiple events. I will also showcase the GPU parton shower GAPS, validating the physics with LEP observables and comparing the execution times with a near-identical CPU-only parton shower.
