Aspects of QCD, from the Tevatron to the LHC

Abstract

This contribution presents a selection of the topics (parton densities, fixed-order calculations, parton showers, soft-gluon resummation) discussed in my introductory lectures at the Workshop and includes a pedagogical overview of the corresponding theoretical tools.
