Allocation of shareable item via dynamic exponentiation

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

• accessing a plurality of values collectively submitted by a plurality of requesters for a shareable item, each value in the plurality of values being assigned to the shareable item by a different corresponding requester among the plurality of requesters, the plurality of values including an extremum value relative to the plurality of values;
• determining a target extremum percentage of the shareable item;
• determining a common exponent based on the target extremum percentage and based on each value in the plurality of values;
• exponentiating each value among the plurality of values to the determined common exponent;
• and
• allocating a plurality of percentages of the shareable item to the plurality of requesters based on the plurality of exponentiated values, each requester in the plurality of requesters being allocated a corresponding percentage of the shareable item based on a corresponding exponentiated value among the exponentiated plurality of values.

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor among the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
• accessing a plurality of values collectively submitted by a plurality of requesters for a shareable item, each value in the plurality of values being assigned to the shareable item by a different corresponding requester among the plurality of requesters, the plurality of values including an extremum value relative to the plurality of values;
• determining a target extremum percentage of the shareable item;
• determining a common exponent based on the target extremum percentage and based on each value in the plurality of values;
• exponentiating each value among the plurality of values to the determined common exponent;
• and
• allocating a plurality of percentages of the shareable item to the plurality of requesters based on the plurality of exponentiated values, each requester in the plurality of requesters being allocated a corresponding percentage of the shareable item based on a corresponding exponentiated value among the exponentiated plurality of values.
