We report on the status of the current development in parallelization of the symbolic manipulation system
FORM. Most existing FORM programs will be able to take advantage of
the parallel execution, without the need for modifications.

Nowadays the sector decomposition technique, which can isolate divergences from parametric representations of integrals, becomes quite useful tool for numerical evaluations of the Feynman loop integrals. It is used to verify the analytical results of multi-loop integrals in the Euclidean region, or in some cases practically used in the physical region by combining with other methods handling...

The talk will cover the latest version of the Feynman-diagram calculator FormCalc. The most significant improvement is the communication of intermediate expressions from FORM to Mathematica and back, for the primary purpose of introducing abbreviations at an early stage. Thus, longer expressions can be treated and a severe bottleneck in particular for processes with high multiplicities removed.

We apply a 'Direct Computation Method', which is purely numerical, to evaluate
Feynman integrals. This method is based on the combination of an efficient
numerical integration and an efficient extrapolation strategy. In addition,
high-precision arithmetic and parallelization techniques can be used if required.
We present our recent progress in the development of this method and show...
