Predictions/Simulation<br />

Event Generation<br />

Tools: MC generators (PYTHIA, ...)<br />

Output: final state particles<br />

Measurements<br />

Collisions<br />

Tools: Accelerator (<strong>LHC</strong>, Tevatron ...)<br />

Output: final state particles<br />

Detector simulation<br />

Tools: Detectors (CMS, ATLAS,...)<br />

Output: detector response<br />

Event reconstruction<br />

Tools: Detectors’ software packages (custom made; MC used in algorithms)<br />

Output: reconstructed physical objects (electrons, muons, jets ...)<br />

Data analysis<br />

Tools: Statistics (ROOT, ...; MC used in algorithms; f.g. Toy MC)<br />

Output: new knowledge (parameter/interval estimates, hypothesis tests, article, talks ...)<br />
