Many optimization problems that arise in practice can be reduced to the problem of computing the projection of a given vector in a Euclidean space onto the simplicial cone generated by a set of linearly independent vectors. For example, the well-known problem in finance of determining the...

This paper aims to gain insight into capacity allocation, downsizing decisions and sequencing rules when managing a portfolio of projects. By downsizing, we mean reducing the scale or size of a project and thereby changing the project's content. In previous work, we have determined the amount of...
