Description

We present an overview of the ${\tt KKMCee\; 5.00.2}$ Monte Carlo event generator for lepton and quark pair production for the high energy electron-positron annihilation process. We note that it is still the most sophisticated event generator for such processes. Its entire source code is re-written in the modern C++ language. We checked that it reproduces all features of the older ${\bf KKMC}$ code in Fortran 77. We discuss a number of improvements both in the MC algorithm and in its various interfaces, such as those to parton showers and detector simulation.
