Golomb rulers have been featured twice in the Computer Recreations column of Scientific American, which did much to popularize them. The most recent feature, and a nice introduction to the problems and their applications, can be found at [DewdeyGolomb85][DewdeyGolomb86].

Many additional references can be found at the following sites [RankinGolomb][ShearerGolomb][OptimalGolomb]

Descriptions of various generalizations (like Golomb rectangles) and additional bibliography can be found at [ShearerCombinatorial]
