Popis: A solution of the CCFM equation for a description of both the structure function $F_2$ and the cross section of forward jet production as measured by the HERA experiments is obtained on the basis of the parton level Monte Carlo program SMALLX. The treatment of the non - Sudakov form factor and the so - called "consistency constraint" are discussed. Following this a backward evolution scheme according to CCFM is developed which then is used to construct an efficient hadron level Monte Carlo program CASCADE. The results from the forward evolution and the backward evolution Monte Carlos are compared and found to be consistent.
