Description

Workshop focused on the discussion of the status, issues, needs and prospects for further development of the MC generators for LHC physics. The meeting will be driven by introductory dedicated talks, both theoretical and exeprimental, followed by ample time for discussion. The agenda of the 2016 edition is here

The Workshop will include tutorial sessions on the main codes in use by the experiments.

VIDYO connection will be available.

For information relative to housing, access to CERN for those not holding a CERN card and laptop registration, please check
