Costas arrays are named after [[John P. Costas (engineer)|John P. Costas]], who first wrote about them in a 1965 technical report. Independently, [[Edgar Gilbert]] also wrote about them in the same year, publishing what is now known as the logarithmic Welch method of constructing Costas arrays.<ref>{{harvtxt|Costas|1965}}; {{harvtxt|Gilbert|1965}}; [http://nanoexplanations.wordpress.com/2011/10/09/an-independent-discovery-of-costas-arrays/ An independent discovery of Costas arrays], Aaron Sterling, October 9, 2011.</ref>
The general enumeration of Costas arrays is an open problem in computer science and finding an algorithm that can solve it in polynomial time is an open research question.
