+The Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is a computational technique of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that has gained
+popularity due to its high parallelism and ability to handle complex geometries with minimal effort. Although LBM
+frameworks are increasingly important in various industries and research fields, their complexity makes them difficult
+to modify and can lead to suboptimal performance. This paper presents miniLB, the first, to the best of our knowledge,
+SYCL-based LBM this http URL addresses the need for a performance-portable LBM proxy app capable of abstracting complex
+fluid dynamics simulations across heterogeneous computing systems. We analyze SYCL semantics for performance portability
+and evaluate miniLB on multiple GPU architectures using various SYCL implementations. Our results, compared against a
+manually-tuned FORTRAN version, demonstrate effectiveness of miniLB in assessing LBM performance across diverse
+hardware, offering valuable insights for optimizing large-scale LBM frameworks in modern computing environments.
