Although this is a bit different that what you asked for, this may be one solution. If you take the number of PCs and divide the speed by that you could use wondershaper for the Ubuntu computers.

$ sudo apt-get install wondershaper

To use it, run ifconfig to find the name of your network controller. After that, type the upload speed in Kbps and and finally upload speed.

$ sudo wondershaper eth0 1024 256
