  Abstract:
The method of partitionable sets for constructing large sets of t-designs have now been used for nearly a decade. The method has resulted in some powerful recursive constructions and also existence results especially for large sets of prime sizes. Perhaps the main feature of the approach is its simplicity. In this paper, we describe the approach and show how it is employed to obtain some of the recursive theorems. We also review the existence results and recursive constructions which have been found by this method.
