Description
In higher order calculations, multi-dimensional parameter integrals,
containing also various types of singularities, are ubiquitous.
We will present the program SecDec, which allows to isolate
the singularities and numerically calculate their coefficients
in a process-independent way.
Therefore it can be used as a building block for the automation
of higher order corrections beyond next-to-leading order,
as a tool to provide numerical results for the master integrals occurring in an amplitude.
We report on new features of the program which are
devised towards this aim and give some illustrations,
in particular for two-loop integrals with several mass scales.
