Introduction<br />
8-10 partons in the final st<strong>at</strong>e @ LO, well separ<strong>at</strong>ed to avoid divergences<br />
Standard Model and beyond tools @ tree level (just few examples)<br />
ALPGEN, AMEGIC++/SHERPA, CARLOMAT, COMIX/SHERPA,<br />
COMPHEP, HELAC-PHEGAS, MADGRAPH/MADEVENT,<br />
O'MEGA/WHIZARD, ...<br />
General purpose Monte Carlo programs (parton shower, hadroniz<strong>at</strong>ion,<br />
multiple interactions, hadrons decays, etc.)<br />
HERWIG, HERWIG++, PYTHIA 6.4, PYTHIA 8.1, SHERPA, ...<br />
High sensitivity to unphysical input scales<br />
Higher order calcul<strong>at</strong>ions are needed to improve accuracy <strong>of</strong> prediction<br />
