<!-- ABOUT THE PROJECT -->
## About The Project

This environment is a mixed cooperative-competitive game, which focuses on the coordination of the agents involved. Agents navigate a world and offload computing tasks to the edge computing-enabled CPU via user-centric wireless transmission.







<!-- GETTING STARTED -->
## Getting Started

### Installation

Install using pip
```sh
pip install UCMEC
```
Or to ensure that you have the latest version:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/qlt315/UCMEC_env.git
cd UCMEC_env
pip install -e .
```


<!-- USAGE EXAMPLES -->
## Usage

Create environments with the gym framework.
First import
```python
import UCMEC
```

Then create an environment:
```python
env = gym.make("MA_UCMEC_env") # for single-agent
```
or 
```python
env = gym.make("SA_UCMEC_env") # for multi-agent
```


Similarly to Gym, step() function in multi-agent environment is defined as
```python
obs, reward, done, info = env.step(actions)
```

Where obs, rewards, done and info are LISTS of N items (where N is the number of agents). The i'th element of each list should be assigned to the i'th agent. 
action space is a LIST of N*M numbers that should be executed in that step.(M is the number of actions for each agent, like offloading decision, power allocation, etc.)
