We present a summary of jet reconstruction and measurements of jet performance at CMS from the 2010 run. Examples of jet commissioning, and measurements of jet energy corrections and jet resolution along with their systematic uncertainty are shown. We also present studies of tagging boosted top quarks and W bosons using specialized jet algorithms.

Hadron jets are the most commonly observed objects in p-p collisions at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Because of this, they are part of the final state of almost any process, and are an important probe in searches for extensions of the Standard Model.
A precise knowledge of the energy calibration for jets is difficult to ascertain for a number of reasons, and is a necessary ingredient...
