An exemplary method of controlling usage of a communication resource (120) comprises organizing a selected bandwidth of a communication resource including a plurality of resource blocks (RBs) (31-62) into a hierarchical arrangement (122) wherein the RBs are contiguous to each other at a lowest level of the arrangement. Nodes (1-30) at higher levels of the arrangement (122) each correspond to a plurality of the RBs in a dependent, related position relative to each node, respectively. At least one RB is assigned to a selected user of the communication resource (120) based upon a current assignment of at least one other RB to maintain a maximum possible number of contiguous unassigned RBs.
