The CBM (Compressed Baryonic Matter) experiment is an experiment being prepared to operate at the future Facility for Anti-Proton and Ion Research (FAIR, Darmstadt, Germany). Its main focus is the measurement of very rare probes, which requires interaction rates of up to 10 MHz. Together with the high multiplicity of charged tracks produced in heavy-ion collisions, this leads to huge data...

We consider standard parallel computing operations in the context
of algorithms for solving 3D graph problems, which have applications
in vertex finding in HEP. Exploiting GPU acceleration for tree accumulation and graph algorithms poses a challenge: GPUs offer extreme computational power and high memory access bandwidth, combined with a fine-grained parallelism that may not fit the...
