Joint routing-and-scheduling has been considered in wireless mesh networks for its significant performance improvement. While existing work assumes it, accurate traffic information is usually not available due to dynamics, as well inaccuracy and delay measurement dissemination. In addition, the joint routing scheduling requires a centralized controller calculate optimal distribute such policies all nodes. Thus, even if always available, central compute repeatedly because demands change...
