The new multipurpose event-generation framework SHERPA, acronym forSimulation for High-Energy Reactions of PArticles, is presented. It is entirelywritten in the object-oriented programming language C++. In its current form,it is able to completely simulate electron--positron and unresolvedphoton--photon collisions at high energies. Also, fully hadronic collisions,such as, e.g., proton--anti-proton, proton--proton, or resolved photon--photonreactions, can be described on the signal level.Comment: 28 pages, three figure
