Abstract: The precise knowledge of the QED initial state corrections is of instrumental importance in studyinghigh luminosity measurements in $e^+e^-$ annihilation at facilities like LEP, the International Linear ColliderILC, CLIC, a Giga-$Z$ facility, and the planned FCC\_ee. Logarithmic corrections of up to $O(\alpha^6 L^5)$ arenecessary with various subleading terms taken into account. This applies to both the inclusive measurementof processes like $e^+ e^- \rightarrow \gamma^*/Z^*$ and also the forward--backward asymmetry. As has been shownrecently, techniques from massive QCD, such as the computation of massive on--shell operator matrix elements canbe used for these calculations. We give an introduction to this topic and present both the calculationmethods and the numerical corrections having been reached so far.
