Taub iterations and Pdelta iterations. ITERDIRECT controls the number of iterations for Taub whereas PDITER controls the number of iterations for the pdelta. The pdelta iterations are nested within the Taub iterations or in other words&amp;nbsp;for every&amp;nbsp;taub iteration, the software carries out a number of Pdelta iterations&amp;nbsp;( governed by PDITER ).&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
