The limited resources of WSNs and the impacts of wireless communication lead to a big challenge in ensuring energy-efficient routing. However, it is not enough to use the shortest path to route the packets among the sensor nodes toward the sink. It is necessary to design an energy-efficient routing protocol that considers the remaining energy of the sensor node during taking the decision to route the packet to the next hop toward the destination. This participates in energy conservation and balancing among the sensor nodes in WSNs. \item \textbf{Autonomous and Distributed Management:} -Since the nature of many WSN applications induce a deployment in a remote or hostile environment, it is important that the wireless sensor nodes work in an autonomous and distributed way to communicate and cooperate without any human intervention since the maintenance or the repair may be difficult. %The distributed management consumes less energy because it is based on only local information from the neighboring sensor nodes; moreover, it does not give the optimal solution. Therefore, the main challenge is how to apply a distributed management in WSNs and in the same time ensuring an optimal or near optimal solution. +Since the nature of many WSN applications induce a deployment in a remote or hostile environment, it is important that the wireless sensor nodes work in an autonomous and distributed way to communicate and cooperate, without any human intervention since the maintenance or the repair may be difficult. %The distributed management consumes less energy because it is based on only local information from the neighboring sensor nodes; moreover, it does not give the optimal solution.

The major challenge in periodic wakeup scheduling is to select and activate the best time interval(s) for a period so that an active wireless sensor node performs the communication (sending and receiving). This is from point of view of wireless sensor node, whilst from the standpoint of the WSN, choosing the time intervals through the wireless sensor nodes to satisfy a certain performance factor seems to be hard task. This level of performance can be carried out with the cooperation among the sensor nodes in WSN to produce the wake-up schedule.
