“…It is instructive to place this particular model and the algorithm in a context of related computational methods (Xing and Chen, 1996;Shepard et al, 2000;Xiao et al, 2000;Starkschall et al, 2001;Xiao et al, 2003a). The SSP algorithm applied to the model without DVC functions, i.e., only with the dose limit constraints (DL-SSP), coincides with the well behaved Cimmino method of the simultaneous projections onto linear constraint sets (Censor and Zenios, 1997;Stark and Yang, 1998).…”
