| Abstract | One of the current challenges in HEP computing is the development of particle propagation algorithms capable of efficiently use all performance aspects of modern computing devices. The Geant-Vector project at CERN has recently introduced an approach in this direction. This paper describes the implementation of a similar workflow using the Intel(r) Threading Building Blocks (Intel(r) TBB) library. This approach is intended to overcome the potential bottleneck of having a single dispatcher on many-core architectures and to result in better scalability compared to the initial pthreads-based version. |
