-In~\cite{ref141}, the problem of full grid coverage is formulated using two integer linear programming models: the first, a model that takes into account only the overall coverage constraint; the second, both the connectivity and the full grid coverage constraints have taken into consideration. This work did not take into account the energy constraint.
+In the case of non-disjoint algorithms~\cite{ref117}, sensors may participate in more than one cover set. In some cases, this may prolong the lifetime of the network in comparison to the disjoint cover set algorithms, but designing algorithms for non-disjoint cover sets generally induces a higher order of complexity. Moreover, in case of a sensor's failure, non-disjoint scheduling policies are less resilient and reliable because a sensor may be involved in more than one cover sets. For instance, Cardei et al.~\cite{ref167}
+present a linear programming (LP) solution and a greedy approach to
+extend the sensor network lifetime by organizing the sensors into a
+maximal number of non-disjoint cover sets. Simulation results show
+that by allowing sensors to participate in multiple sets, the network
+lifetime increases compared with related work~\cite{ref115}. The authors in~\cite{ref148}, addressed the problem of minimum cost area coverage in which full coverage is performed by using the minimum number of sensors for an arbitrary geometric shape region. A geometric solution to the minimum cost coverage problem under a deterministic deployment is proposed. The probabilistic coverage solution which provides a relationship between the probability of coverage and the number of randomly deployed sensors in an arbitrarily-shaped region is suggested. The authors are clarified that with a random deployment about seven times more nodes are required to supply full coverage. The work in~\cite{ref144} addressed the area coverage problem by proposing a geometrically based activity scheduling scheme, named GAS, to fully cover the area of interest in WSNs. The authors deal with a small area, called target area coverage, which can be monitored by a single sensor instead of area coverage, which focuses on a large area that should be monitored by many sensors cooperatively. They explained that GAS is capable to monitor the target area by using a few sensors as possible and it can produce as many cover sets as possible. A novel area coverage method to divide the sensors of the WSN is called node coverage grouping (NCG) is suggested~\cite{ref147}. The sensors in the connectivity group are within sensing range of each other, and the data collected by them in the same group are supposed to be similar. They are proved that dividing N sensors via NCG into connectivity groups is an NP-hard problem. So, a heuristic algorithm of NCG with time complexity of $O(n^3)$ is proposed.
+For some applications, such as monitoring an ecosystem with extremely diversified environment, It might be premature assumption that sensors near to each other sense similar data. The problem of k-coverage over the area of interest in WSNs was addressed in~\cite{ref152}. It is mathematically formulated and the spatial sensor density for full k-coverage is determined. The relation between the communication range and the sensing range is constructed by this work to retain the k-coverage and connectivity in WSN. After that, a four configuration protocols have proposed for treating the k-coverage in WSNs. Simulation results show that their protocols outperform an existing distributed k-coverage configuration protocol. The work that presented in~\cite{ref151} solved the area coverage and connectivity problem in sensor networks in an integrated way. The network lifetime is divided into a fixed number of rounds. A coverage bitmap of sensors of the domain has been generated in each round and based on this bitmap, it has been decided which sensors stay active or turn it to sleep. They checked the connection of the graph via laplacian of the adjacency graph of active sensors in each round. The generation of coverage bitmap by using Minkowski technique, the network is able to providing the desired ratio of coverage. They defined the connected coverage problem as an optimization problem and a centralized genetic algorithm is used to find the solution.
