A substantial part of the current research on QCD in collider physics focuses on the following closely interconnected topics: the formal calculation of amplitudes and integrals, their use in higher-order calculations and the merging of these fixed-order calculations to all order results, either analytic resummations or parton-shower simulations. This scientific program is aimed at bringing together the world leading experts on these topics and at addressing several key issues paramount to the future development of high-precision collider phenomenology such as (i) the bridge between the formal computation of amplitudes or formal next-to-next-to leading (NNLO) subtraction schemes to practical realizations and actual phenomenology. In particular issues like advantages / performances / differences / shortcomings of the different subtraction and slicing methods for double real radiation will be addressed. (ii) Recent advances in the computation of virtual corrections: Analytic versus numerical computation and their respective advantages, performance and shortcomings. (iii) Merging fixed order calculations to parton showers, building NNLO parton showers (NNLOPS) and a comparison between different current NNLOPS approaches. (iv) Improvements on shower algorithms.

In order to enable an iCal export link, your account needs to have an API key created. This key enables other applications to access data from within Indico even when you are neither using nor logged into the Indico system yourself with the link provided. Once created, you can manage your key at any time by going to 'My Profile' and looking under the tab entitled 'HTTP API'. Further information about HTTP API keys can be found in the Indico documentation.
Additionally to having an API key associated with your account, exporting private event information requires the usage of a persistent signature. This enables API URLs which do not expire after a few minutes so while the setting is active, anyone in possession of the link provided can access the information. Due to this, it is extremely important that you keep these links private and for your use only. If you think someone else may have acquired access to a link using this key in the future, you must immediately create a new key pair on the 'My Profile' page under the 'HTTP API' and update the iCalendar links afterwards.
