abstract = "We compute the prompt high-energy gamma-ray emission from GRBs in the framework of the internal shock model [1]. The dynamics of the internal shock phase is followed using a simple model where the relativistic outflow is discretized in a large number of shells that interact by direct collisions. The emission in the comoving frame of each shocked shell is computed using a code that solves the time evolution of the photon and electron populations and includes all relevant radiative processes (synchrotron, synchrotron self-absorption, inverse Compton, photon-photon annihilation and pair production). The contributions of all shells are then added to construct the observed GRB. Lightcurves are computed in different spectral bands (low and high-energy gamma-rays) and the observed photon spectrum at different times is also produced. We present our first results and discuss them in the prospect of future GLAST observations.",
