IR-Improved DGLAP-CS Theory and NLO ME
Matched Parton Shower MC Precision in LHC Physics


We present the current status of the application of our approach of exact amplitude-based resummation in quantum field theory to precision QCD calculations, by realistic MC event generator methods, as needed for precision LHC physics. In this ongoing program of research, we discuss
recent results as they relate to the interplay of the attendant IR-Improved DGLAP-CS theory and the precision of exact NLO matrix-element matched
parton shower MC's in the Herwig6.5 environment in relation to recent LHC experimental observations. There continues to be reason for
optimism in the attendant comparison of theory and experiment.
