Description

We review the next generation global PDF sets: NNPDF3.0, MMHT14 and CT14. We describe the global datasets, particularly the new data from LHC Run I, the developments in QCD theory and PDF methodology, recent improvements in their combination and delivery, and future prospects for parton determination at Run II.
