# MOHAF: Multi-Objective Hierarchical Auction Framework

## Overview
This repository provides the implementation and supporting materials for the paper:

"MOHAF: A Multi-Objective Hierarchical Auction Framework for Scalable and Fair Resource Allocation in IoT Ecosystems"

MOHAF is a distributed resource allocation mechanism for heterogeneous IoT environments.  
It combines hierarchical clustering, submodular optimization, and dynamic pricing to achieve:

- Efficient allocation of resources in large-scale IoT ecosystems  
- Joint optimization of cost, energy efficiency, quality of service (QoS), and fairness  
- Theoretical guarantees with a (1 - 1/e) approximation ratio  
- Perfect fairness across participants (Jain’s Index = 1.000 in experiments)  

We provide code, experimental setup, and references to enable reproducibility and extension of this work.

## Installation

You can install MOHAF directly from PyPI:

```bash
pip install mohaf
```

## Usage

After installation, you can import MOHAF in your Python scripts:

```python
from mohaf.auction_mechanisms import MOHAFAuction
from mohaf.scenarios import generate_synthetic_scenario

# 1. Initialize the auction mechanism
mohaf_auction = MOHAFAuction(alpha=0.3, beta=0.3, gamma=0.2, delta=0.2)

# 2. Generate a synthetic scenario
resources, requests = generate_synthetic_scenario(n_resources=50, n_requests=30)

# 3. Run the auction
results = mohaf_auction.run_auction(resources, requests)
metrics = mohaf_auction.calculate_metrics(results)

print("Auction completed!")
print(f"  Allocation Efficiency: {metrics['allocation_efficiency']:.3f}")
print(f"  Revenue: ${metrics['revenue']:.2f}")
```

For more detailed examples and to reproduce the experiments from the paper, please see the `examples/` directory and the `MOHAF.ipynb` notebook in the repository.
