Given the realities of ever-tightening public budgets and the directives inherent in the No Child Left Behind Act (2001) school districts have been required to do more (with more direct accountability) with less (funding) than ever before. These two forces are, of course, conflicting. One approach to the funding dilemma has districts consolidating schools in order to pool enrollment and resources, in an attempt to reduce pressure to increase class size that would likely reduce student achievement. Another is to create incentive contracts for teachers so that student achievement would directly affect teacher salary. We introduce monitoring technology into an agency-based model of teacher incentive contracting to determine optimal school size, bringing both sides of this debate together.

We consider two capacity choice scenarios for the optimal location of facilities with fixed servers, stochastic demand, and congestion. Motivating applications include virtual call centers, consisting of geographically dispersed centers, walk-in health clinics, motor vehicle inspection stations, automobile emissions testing stations, and internal service systems. The choice of locations for such facilities influences both the travel cost and waiting times of users. In contrast to most previous research, we explicitly embed both customer travel/ connection and delay costs in the objective function and solve the location-allocation problem and choose facility capacities simultaneously. The choice of capacity for a facility that is viewed as a queueing system with Poisson arrivals and expo...
