with the algorithm was that it was selecting the temporary CHs randomly thus com-
promising occasionally on the area coverage of the network which it is monitoring.
A data-aggregation algorithm for WSNs was proposed in Mozumdar et al.
(2009). e algorithm selects a cluster leader that can perform data aggregation in
partially connected sensor networks. e algorithm reduces the traffic flow inside
the network by adaptively selecting the shortest route for packet routing to the
cluster leader. e proposed scheme is only limited to partially connected network
within an intracluster network. Also, the a ...
