Geant4 performance optimization in the ATLAS experiment

Software improvements in the ATLAS Geant4-based simulation are critical to keep up with evolving hardware and increasing luminosity. Geant4 simulation currently accounts for about 50% of CPU consumption in ATLAS and it is expected to remain the leading CPU load during Run 4 (HL-LHC upgrade) with an...
