The network activity can be planned in advance and scheduled for the entire network lifetime or organized in periods, and the set of +active sensor nodes is decided at the beginning of each period. +Active node selection is determined based on the problem +requirements (e.g. area monitoring, connectivity, power +efficiency). Different methods has been proposed in literature. + +{\it DiLCO protocol works in periods, each period contains a preliminary phase for information exchange and decisions, followed by a sensing phase where +one cover set is in charge of the sensing task.} + +Various approaches, including centralised, distributed and localized algorithms, have been proposed to extend the network lifetime. +%For instance, in order to hide the occurrence of faults, or the sudden unavailability of +%sensor nodes, some distributed algorithms have been developed in~\cite{Gallais06,Tian02,Ye03,Zhang05,HeinzelmanCB02}. + +In distributed algorithms~\cite{yangnovel,ChinhVu,qu2013distributed}, information is disseminated throughout the network and sensors decide cooperatively by communicating with their neighbours which of them will remain in sleep mode for a certain period of time. +The centralized algorithms~\cite{cardei2005improving,zorbas2010solving,pujari2011high} always provide nearly +or close to optimal solution since the algorithm has global view of the whole +network, but such a method has the disadvantage of requiring +high communication costs, since the node (located at the base station) making the decision needs information from all the sensor nodes in the area. + +A large variety of coverage scheduling algorithms have been proposed in the literature. Many of the existing algorithms, dealing with the maximisation of the number of cover sets, are heuristics. These heuristics involve the construction of a cover set by including in priority the sensor nodes which cover critical targets, that is to say targets that are covered by the smallest number of sensors. Other approaches are based on mathematical programming formulations and dedicated techniques (solving with a branch-and-bound algorithms available in optimization solver). The problem is formulated as an optimization problem (maximization of the lifetime, of the number of cover sets) under target coverage and energy constraints. Column generation techniques, well-known and widely practiced techniques for solving linear programs with too many variables, have been also used~\cite{castano2013column,rossi2012exact,deschinkel2012column}. + +Diongue and Thiare~\cite{diongue2013alarm} proposed an energy aware sleep scheduling algorithm for lifetime maximization in wireless sensor networks (ALARM).
