A new measurement fornetwork sharing fairness

A quantitative measure for the fairness of network resource distribution was proposed in [1]. This fairness function is widely adopted in network design and management. This paper proposes a new distribution fairness score function. Compared to the fairness function proposed by Jain, Chiu and Hawe, the fairness function proposed in this paper keeps all the nice properties that Jain, Chiu and Haweʹs fairness function possesses. In addition, the proposed fairness score function has better performance in dealing with completely unfair cases.
