I am looking for references or direction in solving the following
problem:

Given a set of prime numbers, whose largest element is less than
1 million. Generate a set of these primes such that NO sum or
difference between any two of these primes is equal to any other
sum or difference between any other combination of these primes.

Is there such a set?

I'd appreciate any comments regarding this.

Email: pjp9q@virginia.edu

Thank you very much.
