1. A method for managing resources in an access terminal, comprising:

  • receiving, from a non-serving sector, slow other-sector interference (OSI) indications and fast OSI indications;

    determining a slow interference metric and a fast interference metric based on the slow OSI indications and the fast OSI indications;

    receiving a channel quality indicator (CQI) of a non-serving sector, and a CQI of a serving sector; and

    adjusting an offset value (A) for managing the resources based, at least in part, on the slow interference metric, the fast interference metric, the CQI of the non-serving sector and the CQI of the serving sector,wherein adjusting the offset value Δ

    is based, at least in part, on a deterministic function of at least one of an average of the slow interference metric, an average of the fast interference metric, or a ratio (rCQI) of the CQI of the non-serving sector to the CQI of the serving sector, andwherein adjusting the offset value Δ

    is further based, at least in part, on a probabilistic function of at least one of previous offset value Δ

    , the average of the slow interference metric, the average of the fast interference metric, or rCQI.
