They show that as the number of subregions increases, so does the network lifetime. Moreover, it makes the MuDiLCO protocol more robust against random network disconnection due to node failures. However, too many subdivisions reduce the advantage of the optimization. In fact, there is a balance between the benefit from the optimization and the execution time needed to solve it. Therefore, We set the number of subregions to 16 rather than 32 as explained in section \ref{ch4:sec:04:05}. We use the modeling language and the optimization solver which are mentioned in section \ref{ch4:sec:04:02}. @@ -453,9 +453,7 @@ energy consumption, since network lifetime and energy consumption are directly We have addressed the problem of the coverage and of the lifetime optimization in wireless sensor networks. This is a key issue as sensor nodes have limited resources in terms of memory, energy, and computational power. To cope with this problem, the field of sensing is divided into smaller subregions using the concept of divide-and-conquer method, and then we propose a protocol which optimizes coverage and lifetime performances in each subregion. Our protocol, called MuDiLCO (Multiround Distributed Lifetime Coverage Optimization) combines two efficient techniques: network leader election and sensor activity scheduling. The activity scheduling in each subregion works in periods, where each period consists of four phases: (i) Information Exchange, (ii) Leader Election, (iii) Decision Phase to plan the activity of the sensors over $T$ rounds, (iv) Sensing Phase itself divided into T rounds. -Simulations results show the relevance of the proposed protocol in terms of lifetime, coverage ratio, active sensors ratio, energy consumption, execution time. Indeed, when dealing with large wireless sensor networks, a distributed approach, like the one we propose, allows to reduce the difficulty of a single global optimization problem by partitioning it into many smaller problems, one per subregion, that can be solved more easily. Nevertheless, results also show that it is not possible to plan the activity of sensors over too many rounds because the resulting optimization problem leads to too high-resolution times and thus to an excessive energy consumption. - - +Simulations results show the relevance of the proposed protocol in terms of lifetime, coverage ratio, active sensors ratio, energy consumption, execution time.

Compared with DiLCO, It is clear that MuDiLCO improves the network lifetime especially for the dense network, but it is less robust than DiLCO under sensor nodes failures. Therefore, choosing the number of rounds $T$ depends on the type of application the WSN is deployed for. \ No newline at end of file
