Abstract :
We describe and analyze a joint scheduling, routing and congestion control mechanism for wireless networks, that asymptotically guarantees stability of the buffers and fair allocation of the network resources. The queue lengths serve as common information to different layers of the network protocol stack, which are otherwise decoupled. Our main contribution is to prove the asymptotic optimality of a primal-dual congestion controller
