DESCRIPTION:Simulations of events taking place at the LHC play key role in
  all experimental analyses. Starting from the basics concepts of QCD\, we 
 first review how accurate predictions can be obtained via fixed-order calc
 ulations at higher orders. Parton showers and event generation are then in
 troduced as a means to achieve fully exclusive predictions. Finally  the r
 ecent merging and matching  techniques between fixed-order and fully exclu
 sive simulations are  presented\, as well as their implementations via the
  MLM/CKKW and MC@NLO/POWHEG methods.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDi
