Abstract One of the important research issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is the optimal layout designing for the deployment of sensor nodes. It directly affects the quality of monitoring, cost, and detection capability of WSNs. Layout optimization is an NP-hard combinatorial problem, which requires optimization of multiple competing objectives like cost, coverage, connectivity, lifetime, load balancing, and energy consumption of sensor nodes. In the last decade, several meta-heuristic optimization techniques have been proposed to solve this problem, such as genetic algorithms (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). However, these approaches either provided computationally expensive solutions or covered a limited number… More >

Abstract In the Acoustics channel, it is incredibly challenging to offer data transfer for time-sourced applications in an energy-efficient manner due to higher error rate and propagation delay. Subsequently, conventional re-transmission over any failure generally initiates significantly larger end-to-end delay, and therefore it is not probable for time-based services. Moreover, standard techniques without any re-transmission consume enormous energy. This investigation proposes a novel multi-hop energy-aware transmission-based intelligent water wave optimization strategy. It ensures reduced end-to-end while attaining potential amongst overall energy efficiency end-to-end packet delay. It merges a naturally inspired meta-heuristic approach with multi-hop routing for data packets to reach the… More >
