We give an overview of a method for using elliptic curves with complex multiplication to give efficient deterministic polynomial time primality tests for the integers in sequences of a special form. This technique has been used to find the largest proven primes $N$ for which there was no known significant partial factorization of $N-1$ or $N+1$.
Keywords: elliptic curves, complex multiplication., Primality.
