Wireless sensor networks are principally categorized by insufficient energy resource. Naturally, communication between the nodes is the utmost energy consuming act that they perform. Hence, development of a well-organized clustering algorithm can play a vital part in enhancing the lifetime of network. Currently, nature inspired methodologies are very common in dealing with it. This work presents a centralized approach that deals with energy-awareness of wireless sensor networks using the Krill Herd algorithm. The performance of the suggested algorithm is assessed with famous clustering protocols. The simulation results show that suggested approach can maximize sensor network lifetime over other algorithms of the same category.
