+In~\cite{yang2014maximum}, The authors are proposed a linear programming approach for selecting the minimum number of sensor nodes in working station so as to preserve a maximum coverage and extend lifetime of the network. Cheng et al.~\cite{cheng2014energy} are proposed a heuristic algorithm called Cover Sets Balance (CSB) algorithm to choose a set of active nodes using the tuple (data coverage range, residual energy). Then, they are introduced a new Correlated Node Set Computing (CNSC) algorithm to find the correlated node set for a given node.  After that, they are proposed a High Residual Energy First (HREF) node selection algorithm to minimize the number of active nodes so as to prolong the network lifetime.

We are studied the impact of dividing the sensing feild (using Divide and Conquer method) on the performance of our  MuDiLCO-T protocol with different network sizes, and we are found that as the number of subregions increase, the network lifetime increase and the MuDiLCO-T protocol become more powerful against the network disconnection.
+This subdivision should be stopped when there is no benefit from the optimization, therefore Our MuDiLCO-T protocol is distributed over 16 rather than 32 subregions because there is a balance between the benefit from the optimization and the execution time is needed to sove it.
