Description

This workshop is intended to follow up the recent progresses in (N)NLO MCs and Tools in Higgs physics to prepare for LHC RUN-2 at 13/14TeV which will start in spring 2015. After reviewing the lessons from RUN-1, 1) recent theoretical progresses in (N)NLO MCs and Tools and 2) MC validation status and wish lists by the experimental collaborations will be discussed, followed by the round table discussions.
