Cosmological gravitational microlensing is a useful technique for
understanding the structure of the inner parts of a quasar, especially the
accretion disk and the central supermassive black hole. So far, most of the
cosmological microlensing studies have focused on single objects from ~90
currently known lensed quasars. However, present and planned all-sky surveys
are expected to discover thousands of new lensed systems. Using a graphics
processing unit (GPU) accelerated ray-shooting code, we have generated 2550
magnification maps uniformly across the convergence ({\kappa}) and shear
({\gamma}) parameter space of interest to microlensing. We examine the effect
of random realizations of the microlens positions on map properties such as the
magnification probability distribution (MPD). It is shown that for most of the
parameter space a single map is representative of an average behaviour. All of
the simulations have been carried out on the GPU-Supercomputer for Theoretical
Astrophysics Research (gSTAR).Comment: 16 pages, 10 figures, accepted for publication in MNRA
