Optimizing router nodes placement for designing distributed sensor networks

Designing a distributed wireless sensor network can be a difficult effort without using simulation tools. These tools should provide a robust and efficient solution for the problem with quick response time. However, available simulation tools for designing wireless sensor networks are very limited. Authors in [1] proposed an interactive design tool based on Dijkstra's algorithm which can assist rapid design of sensor network. However, it has a very high execution time when the network size is relatively large, i.e. n 50. Moreover, it produces a suboptimal solution with large number of router nodes. In this paper, we present efficient and robust synthesis algorithms which exclusively reduce run time for large networks as much as 1000% and also produce a synthesized network with a reduced number of router nodes as much as 150% in comparison to similar previous works.
