Hard QCD at hadron colliders

Abstract

We review the status of QCD at hadron colliders with emphasis on precision predictions and the latest theoretical developments for cross sections calculations to higher orders. We include an overview of our current information on parton distributions and discuss various Standard Model reactions such as W/Z-boson, Higgs boson or top quark production.
