Let ℋ be the system of all continuous increasing functions h(t), denned for t ≥ 0, with h(0) = 0 and h(t)>0 for t > 0. Let Ω be a separable metric space. Then, for each h of ℋ, we may introduce a Hausdorff measure into Ω, by taking

where d(Fi) denotes the diameter of Fi, and where the infimum is taken over all sequences {Fi} of closed sets, covering E and having diameters less than δ. We introduce a natural partial order in the system of these Hausdorff measures by writing j < h, if j, h are functions of ℋ and
