This presentation is an update on the current status of our work on accelerating Argonne National Lab’s particle accelerator simulation code ELEGANT [*] using CUDA-enabled GPU. We summarize the performance of beamline elements ported to GPU, and discuss optimization techniques for some important collective effects kernels. We also outline briefly our testing and code validation infrastructure within ELEGANT and present the latest results of scaling studies with realistic lattices of the GPU-accelerated version of the code.
