 The remainder of this chapter is organized as follows. The next section is devoted to the DiLCO protocol description. Section \ref{ch4:sec:03} gives the primary points based coverage problem formulation which is used to schedule the activation of sensors. Section \ref{ch4:sec:04} shows the simulation results obtained using the discrete event simulator OMNeT++ \cite{ref158}. They fully demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approach. Finally, we give concluding remarks in section \ref{ch4:sec:05}.

 An outline of the  protocol implementation is given by Algorithm~\ref{alg:DiLCO} which describes the execution of a period  by a node (denoted by $s_j$  for a sensor  node indexed by  $j$). In  the beginning,  a node  checks whether  it has enough energy to stay active during the next sensing phase (i.e., the remaining energy $RE_j$ $\geq$ $E_{th}$ (the  amount of energy required to be alive during one period)). If yes, it exchanges information  with  all the  other nodes belonging to the same subregion:  it collects from each node its position coordinates, remaining energy ($RE_j$), ID, and  the number  of  one-hop neighbors  still  alive. Once  the  first phase  is completed, the nodes  of a subregion choose a leader to  take the decision based on the criteria described in section \ref{ch4:sec:02:03:02}.

 By choosing the best suited nodes, for each period, by optimizing the coverage and lifetime of the network to cover the area of interest and by letting the other ones sleep in order to be used later in next periods, DiLCO-16 protocol and DiLCO-32 protocol efficiently prolong the network lifetime. 
 Comparison shows that DiLCO-16 protocol and DiLCO-32 protocol, which use distributed optimization over the subregions, are the best ones because they are robust to network disconnection during the network lifetime as well as they consume less energy in comparison with other approaches. 
 %It also means that distributing the algorithm in each node and subdividing the sensing field into many subregions, which are managed independently and simultaneously, is the most relevant way to maximize the lifetime of a network.

 A crucial problem in WSN is to schedule the sensing activities of the different nodes  in order to ensure both coverage of  the area  of interest  and longer network lifetime.
