We briefly summarise the main results presented at the IPPP Workshop on Multiparticle Production in QCD Jets, held in Durham in December 2001.

We discuss two examples of oscillations apparently hidden in some experimental results for high energy multiparticle production processes: (i) - the log-periodic oscillatory pattern decorating the power-like Tsallis distributions of transverse momenta, (ii) - the oscillations of the modified combinants obtained from the measured multiplicity distributions. We show that in both cases these phenomena can provide new insight into the dynamics of these processes.
Theoretical and experimental studies of high multiplicity events are analyzed. Some interesting phenomena can be revealed at high multiplicities. Preliminary results of project Thermalization are reported.
We discuss results for di-boson plus two jets production processes at the LHC at NLO QCD. Issues related to the scale choice are reviewed. We focus on the distributions of the invariant mass and rapidity separation of the two hardest jets and show, for $W^pm gamma jj$ and $Zgamma jj$ production, how the contribution from the radiative decays of the massive gauge bosons can be significantly reduced.
Multiparticle production processes provide valuable information about the mechanism of the conversion of the initial energy of projectiles into a number of secondaries by measuring their multiplicity distributions and their distributions in phase space. They therefore serve as a reference point for more involved measurements. Distributions in phase space are usually investigated using the statistical approach, very successful in general but failing in cases of small colliding systems, small multiplicities, and at the edges of the allowed phase space, in which cases the underlying dynamical effects competing with the statistical distributions take over. We discuss an alternative approach, which applies to the whole phase space without detailed knowledge of dynamics. It is based on a modification of the usual statistics by generalizing it to a superstatistical form. We stress particularly the scaling and self-similar properties of such an approach manifesting themselves as the phenomena of the log-periodic oscillations and oscillations of temperature caused by sound waves in hadronic matter. Concerning the multiplicity distributions we discuss in detail the phenomenon of the oscillatory behaviour of the modified combinants apparently observed in experimental data.
After reviewing the main features of the GoSam framework for automated one-loop calculations, we present a selection of recent phenomenological results obtained with it. In particular, we focus on the recent calculation of NLO QCD corrections to the production of a Higgs boson in conjunction with jets at the LHC.
