parameter set is new functionality provided starting with v8x , wherein we can define a group of parameters as a "parameter set" at project level, and then can use that set in all of the jobs of concerned project. Thereby eliminating the need of defining the parameters in each job specifically.

This is a useful from maintainenance and reusability point of view.

Parameters are stored in - as properties of - individual jobs. A Parameter Set is a re-usable component stored in the Repository that can be loaded into as many jobs as required. A Parameter Set contains a collection of ordinary parameter definitions. A Parameter Set may also have associated with it zero or more "values files" containing different sets of default values that may be used in different circumstances.
