As we know it today, the fundamental constituent of proton and neutron is quark. Due to confinement, bare quark has never been observed in the laboratory. However, quark produce at higher energy manifest itself as a collimated spray of hadrons, called jet. In the first part of this talk, I will review the historical development in the theory of QCD jet. In the second part I will first introduce energy correlation functions as a new tool for understanding the structure of jet. Then I will show several applications using this tool.
