The simulation software for the ATLAS Experiment at Large Hadron Collider is being used large-scale production of events on LHC Computing Grid. This requires many components, from generators that simulate particle collisions, through packages simulating response various detectors and triggers. All these components come together under infrastructure. In this paper, infrastructure discussed, including supporting detector description, interfacing event generation, combining GEANT4 individual...
