The sensor nodes deployed in wireless sensor networks are extremely power constrained, so prolonging the lifetime of the entire networks is mainly considered in the design. This paper analyzes the disadvantages of excessive clustering time because of the possible uneven cluster density. As a result, we present ASMC algorithm and determine (a) first-run presetting cluster heads (CHs) number, (b)...

The paper presents a new cluster based routing algorithm that exploits the redundancy properties of the sensor networks in order to address the traditional problem of load balancing and energy efficiency in the WSNs.The algorithm makes use of the nodes in a sensor network of which area coverage is covered by the neighbours of the nodes and mark them as temporary cluster heads. The algorithm the...

In this paper, two clustering algorithms are proposed. In the first one, we investigate a clustering protocol for single hop wireless sensor networks that employs a competitive scheme for cluster head selection. The proposed algorithm is named EECSM that is a modified version to the well known protocol EECS where some of the nodes become volunteers to be cluster heads with an equal probability....

Because of the non uniform node distribution, the energy spending among nodes are more imbalanced in cluster-based wireless sensor networks. Based on this problem, in this paper, a cluster-based routing protocol for wireless sensor networks with non uniform node distribution is proposed, which includes an energy-aware clustering algorithm EADC and a cluster-based routing algorithm. EADC uses co...

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET), is a self-configuring network of mobile devices connected by wireless links. In order to achieve stable clusters, the cluster-heads maintaining the cluster should be stable with minimum overhead of cluster re-elections. In this paper we propose a Probability Based Adaptive Invoked Weighted Clustering Algorithm (PAIWCA) which can enhance the stability of the clus...

In wireless sensor networks (WSN), conserving energy and increasing lifetime of the network are a critical issue that has been addressed by substantial research works. The clustering technique has been proven particularly energy-efficient in WSN. The nodes form groups (clusters) that include one cluster head and member clusters. Cluster heads (CHs) are able to process, filter, gather the data s...

The technological advances in wireless communication, microelectro-mechanical system (MEMS) technologies and digital electronics over the past few years have enabled the development of wireless sensor networks (WSN). In some applications, the WSN nodes are dedicated to be mobile rather than static. This requirement poses new and interesting challenges for both medium access control (MAC) and ro...
