[Guglielmetti, Robert]

Keep in mind that Wienold's study was limited to shallow floor plate office environments and glare from daylight specifically. It is great work, but you need to keep the context in mind when considering the metric.

In short, both DGI and DGP are intended to do the same (index of comfort, or tolerable glare as you say), but in the Wienold dissertation that Mostapha references, the DGP is found to have better correlation to actual user perception than DGI.
