| dc.description | The structure of events in high-energy collisions is complex and not predictable from first principles. Event generators allow the problem to be subdivided into more manageable pieces, some of which can be described from first principles, while others need to be based on appropriate models with parameters tuned to data. In these lectures we provide an overview, discuss how matrix elements are used, introduce the machinery for initial- and final-state parton showers, explain how matrix elements and parton showers can be combined for optimal accuracy, introduce the concept of multiple parton--parton interactions, comment briefly on the hadronization issue, and provide an outlook for the future. | |
