The $NLO$ production of the $W^{\pm}$ and $Z^0$ vector bosons via hadron   collisions in the frameworks of $KMR$ and $MRW$ unintegrated parton   distribution functions
  In a series of papers, we have investigated the compatibility of the $Kimber$-$Martin$-$Ryskin$ ($KMR$) and $Martin$-$Ryskin$-$Watt$ ($MRW$) $unintegrated$ parton distribution functions ($UPDF$) as well as the description of the experimental data on the proton structure functions. The present work is a sequel to that survey, via calculation of the transverse momentum distribution of the electro-weak gauge vector bosons in the $k_t$-factorization scheme, by the means of the $KMR$, the $LO\;MRW$ and the $NLO\;MRW$ $UPDF$, in the next-to leading order ($NLO$). To this end, we have calculated and aggregated the invariant amplitudes of the corresponding $involved$ diagrams in the $NLO$, and counted the individual contributions in different frameworks. The preparation process for the $UPDF$ utilizes the $PDF$ of $Martin$ et al, $MSTW2008-LO$, $MSTW2008-NLO$, $MMHT2014-LO$ and $MMHT2014-NLO$ as the inputs. Afterwards, the results have been analyzed against each other, as well as the existing experimental data. Our calculation show excellent agreement with the experiment data. It is however interesting to point-out that, the calculation using the $KMR$ framework illustrates a stronger agreement with the experimental data, despite the fact that the $LO\;MRW$ and the $NLO\;MRW$ formalisms employ a better theoretical description of the $DGLAP$ evolution equation. This is of course due to the use of the different implementation of the angular ordering constraint in the $KMR$ approach, in which automatically includes the re-summation of $ln({1/x})$, $BFKL$ logarithms, in the $LO$-$DGLAP$ evolution equation.
