The name of the algorithm is derived from the concept of a [[simplex]] and was suggested by [[Theodore Motzkin|T. S. Motzkin]].<ref name="Murty22" >{{harvtxt|Murty|1983|loc=Comment 2.2}}</ref> Simplices are not actually used in the method, but one interpretation of it is that it operates on simplicial ''[[cone (geometry)|cone]]s'', and these become proper simplices with an additional constraint.<ref name="Murty39">{{harvtxt|Murty|1983|loc=Note 3.9}}</ref><ref name="StoneTovey">{{cite journal|last1=Stone|first1=Richard E.|last2=Tovey|first2=Craig A.|title=The simplex and projective scaling algorithms as iteratively reweighted least squares methods|journal=SIAM Review|volume=33|year=1991|issue=2|pages=220–237

The shape of this polytope is defined by the [[System of linear inequalities|constraints]] applied to the objective function.
