Abstract
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

| Title | Sherpa 2.2.12 |
| Description | Sherpa is a well-established software project for modelling high-energy particle collisions. The relevant output here is speed improvements based on profiling studies optimisation effort. |
| Type Of Material | Computer model/algorithm |
| Year Produced | 2021 |
| Provided To Others? | Yes |
| Impact | Since Sherpa is deployed widely on the LHC computing grid and uses significant computing resources, any saving in CPU is significant, and means more physics can be done, or alternatively, less cost and environmental impact per physics event. |
