+CERN hosts the world’s largest particle accelerator, the LHC, where beams of particles
+are accelerated and made to collide to study the fundamental structures of our universe.
+The LHC produces petabytes of physics data regarding particle collisions that need to be
+analysed efficiently. These collisions are expressed as operations on particles, represented
+as 4-dimensional time-space vectors, also known as Lorentz Vectors. Analysing these
+massive amounts of data naturally requires highly efficient and complex software solutions.

+The SynxFlow hydrodynamic modeling code was re-engineered using oneAPI, Intel’s implementation of SYCL,
+a cross-vendor heterogeneous programming model. This transformation aimed to address limitations in GPU
+compatibility and enhance scalability for next-generation Exa-Scale High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems.
+The new implementation delivers improved performance, interoperability, and scalability across diverse hardware
+platforms, enabling ground-breaking large-scale probabilistic forecasting with high spatial and temporal resolutions.  
+
+The SYCL implementation and Performance tests used components of the Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit
+and Dawn, one of the UK’s newest and fastest artificial intelligence (AI) supercomputers.
