Monte Carlo Simulation of Ultrafast Carrier Transport: Scalability Study☆

Abstract In this work we consider Monte Carlo methods and algorithms for solving quantum-kinetic integral equations which describe the electron transport in semiconductors. Here we study the scalability of the presented algorithms using HPC resources in South-Eastern Europe. Numerical results for parallel efficiency and computational cost are also presented. In addition we discuss the coordinated use of heterogeneous HPC resources from one and the same application in order to achieve a good performance.
