Abstract: | An up-to-date global QCD analysis of high energy lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron interactions is performed to better determine
the gluon and quark parton distributions in the nucleon. Improved experimental data on inclusive jet production, in conjunction
with precise deep inelastic scattering data, place good constraints on the gluon over a wide range of x; while new data on asymmetries in Drell-Yan processes contribute to better determine the d/u ratio. Comparisons with results of other recent global analyses are made, and the differences are described. Open issues
and the general problem of determining the uncertainties of parton distributions are discussed.
