Abstract: An overview of theoretical and experimental progress in double parton scattering (DPS) is presented. The theoretical topics cover factorization in DPS, models for double parton distributions and DPS in charm production and nuclear collisions. On the experimental side, CMS results for dijet and double J/\psi\ production, in light of DPS, as well as first results for the 4-jet channel are presented. ALICE reports on a study of open charm and J/\psi\ multiplicity dependence.<br />Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, contribution of the Double Parton Scattering track to the proceedings of MPI@LHC 2013
