I will review the GENEVA framework, that combines the NNLL resummation of large Sudakov logarithms at small values of the jet resolution variable with multiple NLO matrix-element corrections at larger values, to give a complete description at the next higher perturbative accuracy in the strong coupling constant at both small and large jet resolution scales. Results for e+e- to jets and Drell-Yan plus jets production will be presented, obtained using -jettiness as the jet resolution variable and relying on PYTHIA8 for the final showering and hadronization. Extension of the method towards NNLO accuracy will also be discussed. Simone Alioli (LBNL & UC Berkeley)
