| Abstract | The CMS simulation, based on the Geant4 toolkit, has been operational within the new CMS software framework for more than four years. The description of the detector, including the forward regions, has been completed. A detailed investigation of detector positioning and material budget is underway using collision data. Detailed modelling of detector noise has been performed and validated with the collision data. |
