 %In this dissertation, we use linear programming because we used integer programs to optimize the coverage and the lifetime in WSNs.
 In this dissertation, we optimize the coverage and the lifetime in WSNs and the problem is formulated through linear programming. These kind of models allow to obtain optimal solutions satisfying an objective (for instance, maximize coverage)  under constraints (for instance, available remaining energy). 
 
-The remainder of this chapter is organized as follows. The next section is devoted to the evaluation tools for evaluating and validating the  performance of proposed algorithms and protocols. Section \ref{ch3:3} gives the most popular free and commercial linear optimization solvers to solve the linear programming problems. Finally, we give concluding remarks in section \ref{ch3:4}.

-The WISEBED~\cite{ref183} is a large-scale WSN testbed  with a hierarchical architecture that consists of four major parts: wireless sensor nodes, gateways, portal server, and overlay network. The lowest level of the hierarchy corresponds to the WSN in which a set of these sensor nodes is connected to the gateway to provide access to the other remaining sensor nodes. The gateways are connected to a portal server, which not only  supervises the WSN, but also allows user interactions with the testbed. Each WISBED site includes separate portal server. The major goal of this testbed is to provide a multi-level infrastructure of interconnected testbeds of large scale wireless sensor networks for research purposes. It provides an interdisciplinary approach which integrates the hardware, software, algorithms, and data. WISEBED provides heterogeneous large-scale structure because it brings several heterogeneous small-scale devices together to form a large-scale network structure. It provides the research with different quality networks due to the heterogeneous structure of the network.

-Several sensor nodes testbeds are available to support the research efforts in WSNs, but only a few of them provide common evaluation goals for  a large number of users~\cite{ref187,ref181}. However, all the WSN testbeds have usually many common properties, such as a typical number of sensors of the order of hundreds and sometimes only tens of nodes; the deployment of the sensor nodes in a static grid topology; metrics and debug information are obtained via wired connections. Therefore, the WSN testbeds impose strong limitations on the WSNs in terms of size and topology.  Moreover, the cost of performing an experiment on a testbed is much higher than through a simulation because setting up the experiments, instrumenting the nodes, gathering the metrics on the performance, and so on is so expensive. For evaluating the systems and protocols on a large sensor networks, the simulation tools are the better choice due to the costs for hardware and maintenance~\cite{ref186}. Hence, the  simulation tools stay the most practical tools to obtain a feedback on the performance of a new solution~\cite{ref180}.
