GPU-Based Tracking Algorithms for the ATLAS High-Level Trigger

GPU-accelerated event processing is one of the possible options for the ATLAS High-Level Trigger (HLT) upgrade for higher LHC luminosity. This poster presents data preparation and track finding algorithms specifically designed to run on a GPU using a “client-server” solution for hybrid CPU/GPU event processing and integration of the GPU algorithms into existing ATLAS HLT software. The resulting speed-up of event processing times obtained with high-luminosity simulated data is presented and discussed
