Various embodiments include a resource control system. The resource control system can receive consumption demand requests to access one or more electronic resources. The resource control system can assign license entitlements, each with varying quantity, to consumption demand requests to enable access to the electronic resources. An ambiguity resolution engine can make license entitlement assignments to consumption demand requests when a set of license entitlements can cover a target electronic resource specified by the consumption demand requests. The ambiguity resolution engine can rank license entitlements based on ratios of their resource costs and the consumption demand requests based on their electronic resource usage efficiency. The ambiguity resolution engine can assign the license entitlements by comparing the rankings of the license entitlements and the rankings of the consumption demand requests.
