Deep Reinforcement Learning for Online Computation Offloading in Wireless Powered Mobile-Edge Computing Networks

Python code to reproduce our DROO algorithm for Wireless-powered Mobile-Edge Computing [1], which uses the time-varying wireless channel gains as the input and generates the binary offloading decisions. It includes:

• memory.py: the DNN structure for the WPMEC, inclduing training structure and test structure, implemented based on Tensorflow 1.x.

  • memoryTF2.py: Implemented based on Tensorflow 2.
  • memoryPyTorch.py: Implemented based on PyTorch.

• optimization.py: solve the resource allocation problem

• data: all data are stored in this subdirectory, includes:

  • data_#.mat: training and testing data sets, where # = {10, 20, 30} is the user number

• main.py: run this file for DROO, including setting system parameters, implemented based on Tensorflow 1.x

  • mainTF2.py: Implemented based on Tensorflow 2. Run this file for DROO if you code with Tensorflow 2.
  • mainPyTorch.py: Implemented based on PyTorch. Run this file for DROO if you code with PyTorch.

• demo_alternate_weights.py: run this file to evaluate the performance of DROO when WDs' weights are alternated

• demo_on_off.py: run this file to evaluate the performance of DROO when some WDs are randomly turning on/off

• For DROO algorithm, run the file, main.py. If you code with Tenforflow 2 or PyTorch, run mainTF2.py or mainPyTorch.py, respectively. The original DROO algorithm is coded based on Tensorflow 1.x. If you are fresh to deep learning, please start with Tensorflow 2 or PyTorch, whose codes are much cleaner and easier to follow.

• For more DROO demos:

  • Laternating-weight WDs, run the file, [demo_alternate_weights.py](demo_alternate_weights.
  • ON-OFF WDs, run the file, demo_on_off.py
  • Remember to respectively edit the import MemoryDNN code from

     from memory import MemoryDNN
    

    to

     from memoryTF2 import MemoryDNN
    

    or

     from memoryPyTorch import MemoryDNN
    

    if you are using Tensorflow 2 or PyTorch.
