Challenges in Monte Carlo Event Generator Software for High-Luminosity LHC
(2021) In Computing and Software for Big Science 5(1).- Abstract
We review the main software and computing challenges for the Monte Carlo physics event generators used by the LHC experiments, in view of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) physics programme. This paper has been prepared by the HEP Software Foundation (HSF) Physics Event Generator Working Group as an input to the LHCC review of HL-LHC computing, which has started in May 2020.
