Description
Present status of extensive air shower (EAS) simulation procedures
is reviewed. The advantages of combining numerical and Monte Carlo
(MC) methods for the description of air shower development are
demonstrated. The relation to experimental techniques for the studies
of high energy cosmic rays is also addressed. The uncertainties in
the predicted EAS characteristics are analysed and potential
improvements in the accuracy of the predictions are discussed.
