Abstract :
New software tools are being developed incorporating the most accurate theoretical calculations and experimental data available for crucial and not-yet-considered physics processes specific to muon accelerators. This will substantially enhance the confidence that the tools used in assessing the feasibility of a muon collider or a neutrino factory accurately represent the performance of a real machine. Current status and progress are reported.
