The fastNLO project uses multi-dimensional interpolationtechniques to convert the convolutions of perturbative coefficients with parton distribution functions and the strong coupling into simple products. By integrating the perturbativecoefficients for a given observable with interpolation kernels, fastNLO can store the results of the time-consuming folding integrals in tables, which subsequently are used for very fast rederivations of the same observable for arbitrary parton distribution functions, different scale choices, or α<sub>s</sub> (M_Z) T2 - 20th International Workshop on Deep-Inelastic Scattering and Related Topics CY - 26 Mar 2013 - 30 Mar 2013, Bonn (Germany) Y2 - 26 Mar 2013 - 30 Mar 2013 M2 - Bonn, Germany LB - PUB:(DE-HGF)8 ; PUB:(DE-HGF)15 DO - DOI:10.3204/DESY-PROC-2012-02/165 UR - https://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/154668 ER -
