Abstract
A method to determine a hierarchical fair share of resources among one or more scheduling peers. The method determines a greatest fairness difference between the usage percentage difference of a most-served competing peer and that of a least-served competing peer. The method determines a greatest accumulated fairness difference between the accumulated usage percentage difference of the most-served competing peer and that of the least-served competing peer. The method adjusts a resource allocation such that resources from the most-served competing peer are allocated to the least-served competing peer if an adjustment condition is met, wherein the adjustment condition is based on one or both of i) the greatest fairness difference, and ii) whether the greatest accumulated fairness difference exceeds at least one threshold.
