Abstract
We present an efficient generator for the process e+e- → 4 fermions + γ through off-shell W pairs. It is based on a massless matrix element with leading O(m2) corrections. Only the resonant WW graphs are included. We have tested it against a matrix element without these approximations and found agreement to within ∼1% at LEPII energies.

A new general purpose algorithm for multidimensional integration is described, an iterative and adaptive Monte Carlo scheme that is considerably more efficient than several others currently in use for a number of sample integrals of high dimension.

A calculation of the hard bremsstrahlung process and the dependence of the results on the renormalization scheme ($\ensuremath{\alpha}$ and ${G}_{\ensurmath{\mu}}$ scheme) is investigated.
