For calculations of neutron productions and radiation damages in nuclear design of Accelerator Driven System (ADS) and exposure doses in radiation cancer therapy, radiation transport simulations with the high-energy nuclear data library evaluated with experimental data play an important role. Experimental data are needed for validation of nuclear reaction models in calculation codes. In this paper, we explain examples of nuclear data measurements in high energy region and the progress of the Particle and Heavy-Ion Transport code System (PHITS) developed in Japan.
