The methods from Section 10.2.3, which are based on
backprojections, can also be applied to this formulation. These
methods must initially set
. If
is initially
nonempty, then backprojections can be attempted using the general
algorithm in Figure 10.6. Dijkstra's algorithm, as given
in Figure 10.8, can be applied to yield a plan that is
worst-case optimal.
