Abstract
A system and method for the dynamic allocation of resources based on fairness, throughput, and user behavior measurement. A resource allocation decision can be made based on an index value computed by a selection index function. A fairness coefficient and a throughput coefficient, which represent the significance of fairness and throughput can be computed utilizing a reinforcement learning algorithm. The degree of fairness and throughput coefficient can be varied while allocating resources. A user behavior coefficient with respect to a user can be computed to determine the degree of cooperativeness of the user with other users and the value of user behavior coefficient can be updated each time it interacts with the system.
