	abstract = {Equipping wireless nodes with multiple radios can significantly increase the capacity of wireless networks, by making these radios simultaneously transmit over multiple non-overlapping channels. However, due to the limited number of radios and available orthogonal channels, designing efficient channel assignment and scheduling algorithms in such networks is a major challenge. In this paper, we present provably-good distributed algorithms for simultaneous channel allocation of individual links and packet-scheduling, in software-defined radio (SDR) wireless networks. Our distributed algorithms are very simple to implement, and do not require any coordination even among neighboring nodes. A novel access hash function or random oracle methodology is one of the key drivers of our results. With this access hash function, each radio can know the transmitters{\textquoteright} decisions for links in its interference set for each time slot without introducing any extra communication overhead between them. Further, by utilizing the inductive-scheduling technique, each radio can also backoff appropriately to avoid collisions. Extensive simulations demonstrate that our bounds are valid in practice.},
