Abstract: Summary The focus of this contribution is on algorithms for constructing optimal designs. Henry Wynn, one of the earliest contributors in this field, inspired David Silvey to point me in the direction of further algorithmic developments. I first heard of this topic at a seminar David gave at University College London in the autumn of 1970 in which he spoke of Henry's work (he had been Henry's external examiner). Henry also attended this seminar! The rest is history. In this chapter, Henry's work and ripples therefrom will be explored.
