Abstract
We review on-shell and unitarity methods and discuss their application to precision predictions for Large Hadron Collider (LHC) physics. Being universal and numerically robust, these methods are straightforward to automate for next-to-leading-order computations within standard model and beyond. Several state-of-the-art results including studies of (W/Z+3)-jet and (W+4)-jet production have explicitly demonstrated the effectiveness of the unitarity method for describing multi-parton scattering. Here we review central ideas needed to obtain efficient numerical implementations. This includes on-shell loop-level recursions, the unitarity method, color management and further refined tricks.
