This methd, based n the Khalimsky thery, reduces the energy cnsumptin and the flding rates f the cnventinal flding algrithm. Our slutin allwed t build a hierarchical tplgy reduces the number f cmmunicatin links between ndes while maintaining the adjacency list t minimize the data redundancy. It allws calculating an ptimal set f frwarding gateway ndes t rute data packets between a surce and a destinatin. This set includes all ptimal paths using the less number f ndes. Our simulatin study shws that the Khalimsky thery reduces cnsiderably the flding rates and the energy cnsumptin. Our slutin can be applied in the fields needing prefixed gateway ndes and randmly deplyed sensrs which use urgent data with real-time aspect such as the security and the mnitring f industrial znes and hme building. Keywrds: Wireless Sensr Netwrk; WSN; Flding; Khalimsky Tplgy; Flding Khalimsky Algrithm; Flding Rates; Energy Cnsumptin; WSN Deplyment. 1 Intrductin Technlgical advances in recent years have enabled the develpment f new types f sensrs equipped with wireless cmmunicatin system that can be cnfigured t frm autnmus netwrks called WSNs. These WSNs are used in varius dmains such as hme autmatin, health care, military dmain and envirnment mnitring. In the netwrk, the sensrs ndes cperate between them t treat and t cnvey the cllected data twards the base statin which acts accrding t prgrammed scenaris. These sensrs are characterized by a small memry size, a lw capacity fr treatment and limited energy resurce [1, 2]. Generally, dissipated energy by a sensr is the ttal f energies used t gather, treat and send/receive data. Mst f this energy is used by the radi mdule in sending/receiving infrmatin. The main fcus f WSN research has been n energy efficiency. The bjective is the develpment f tplgies and ruting prtcls allwing the reductin f the dissipated energy by the radi cmpnent. We shuld nte that the effectiveness f a ruting prtcl depends n the architecture f sensrs ndes deplyment and their perating prcesses. Fr that, flding is very used fr the WSN architecture cnstructin.

It cnsumes a lt f energy and needs t be refined and ptimized t eliminate unnecessary data redundancy [3, 4]. Accrdingly, we devte ur research tasks t adapt scientific advances research in the fields f mathematics such as Khalimsky thery and the multi-agents systems t carry ut a sensrs deplyment methd fr WSNs reducing the flding rates and minimizing the energy cnsumptin. Our idea cnsists t create a WSN frmed by a set f fixed sensrs used as gateway ndes based n the Khalimsky tplgy and a set f clusters cntaining member ndes t gather infrmatin. The Khalimsky tplgy permits t cnvey the flding prcess using ptimal paths between gateway ndes and the sink when a nde transmits a data packet. The multi agents system permits t assign the jbs fr each nde in the clusters and in the set f the gateway ndes t cmplete a task f cllecting and transmitting infrmatin between a surce and a destinatin. Our bjective is t minimize the flding rates by the limiting f the flding in the set f the gateways, based n the Khalimsky architecture, using nly thse which frm ptimal paths. In this paper, we present Khalimsky tplgy used t build the architecture f deplyed gateways in a WSN. This tplgy prvides a hierarchical architecture in which each sensr nde is capable t cnvey data t their destinatin in an ptimal set f ndes minimizing the flding rates. In the secnd time, we present the evaluatin results f this methd cmpared with cnventinal flding algrithm. This evaluatin is carried ut by the TOSSIM simulatr and the PwerTOSSIM-Z mdule which allws t mdel pwer cnsumptin by sensrs ndes using the TinyOS2.1 perating system [5-7]. The remainder f this paper is rganized as fllws: sectin 2 presents an utline n WSN deplyment architectures, types f ruting prtcls and flding prblems such energy cnsumptin and infrmatin redundancies. Sectin 3 shws the Khalimsky tplgy characteristics and the aut-rganizatin algrithm f sensr ndes. Sectin 4 shws the nvel flding algrithm accrding t Khalimsky thery. Sectin 5 presents the simulatin and evaluatin results f the develped algrithms. Sectin 6 presents sme future wrks. Finally, sectin 7 gives sme cnclusins. 2 Related Wrk Several research studies have appeared t ptimize the energy cnsumptin f ndes thrugh the use f innvative cnservatin methds t imprve netwrk perfrmance, including the maximizatin f its life. Since the radi mdule is the greediest cmpnent, the trend was t reduce the cmmunicatins rates by ptimizing the data ruting t reduce the energy cnsumptin. Cnsequently, several ruting prtcls have been develped. Hwever, they cannt be applied apprpriately t any applicatin cntext. Depending n the architecture, the deplyed sensrs take place by a randm r rganized way. In the rganized way, sensrs must be deplyed in predetermined psitins where it is pssible t prgram their activities and data packets rutes. In the randm way, the ndes are scattered n the cllecting field in mass by several means such as thrwing them by plane. In this mde, an aut-rganizatin algrithm is necessary t imprve the perfrmance f the WSN [8]. In the literature, WSNs ruting prtcls can be classified in three main classes: flat, hierarchical and gegraphic netwrk ruting prtcls. In flat architecture, each nde plays the same rle and has the same functinality as ther sensr ndes in the netwrk. Sensrs can send data t the base statin directly using a high pwer, r hp URL: 26

3 Transactins n Netwrks and Cmmunicatins; Vlume 2, Issue 6, December 2014 by hp with a very lw pwer. The mst ppular flat-based ruting prtcl is data-centric prtcls like flding. In this type f prtcls, it is nt necessary t have an addressing mechanism fr sensr ndes. Data is prpagated gradually t the interested neighbrs requiring the data annunced r in fld twards selected r all the neighbrs with an imprtant redundancy until reaching the base statin [8-10]. The unnecessary flded data packets, the nt ptimum paths, the data transmissin time and the different ratis f energy cnsumptin between sensr ndes are the mst disadvantages in the dense flat netwrks. In hierarchical architecture, the nde representing the cluster-head transmits directly cllected data frm member-ndes t the base statin, r via a multi-hp mde between the cluster-heads. The cluster-heads are generally a sensrs mre pwerful than the member ndes r sensrs whse battery level is the highest in the cluster. This type f prtcl is the mst adpted tday. It minimizes mre the energy cnsumptin cmpared t flat architecture and it has tw great advantages: scalability and the simple implementatin f the aggregatin mechanisms. Leach, TEEN and PEGASIS are the mst ppular hierarchical ruting prtcls fr WSNs [8-10]. The data prpagatin between the cluster-heads and the sink uses multiple paths which are nt necessary ptimized. It requires an aut-rganizatin algrithm t select cluster heads and t affect member ndes t the calculated cluster. In a gegraphic ruting prtcl, a nde is suppsed t knw its gegraphical psitin, its neighbrs and the destinatin nde. T transmit data t the sink, the nearest nde destinatin, amng the neighbring ndes, is selected as the next hp. Multiple gegraphic ruting prtcls like GPSR, SPEED, GEAR, GAF... are prpsed. In such prtcl, the ruting data is ptimized and the cst t cntrl the algrithm is reduced. Hwever, the disadvantage f gegraphic-based ruting prtcls is the means used fr ndes lcalizatin. The lcalizatin is ensured by the exchange f a big number f messages by flding algrithm t discver ndes between them [8-10]. The flding mechanism is used by several ruting prtcls fr sensr ndes rganizatin. It permits the rutes setup, the neighbring discvery fr each nde and the links state updates. Such mechanism suffers frm a huge amunt f infrmatin redundancy due t the big number f exchanged aut-rganizatin data packets. Hwever, the reductin f the flding rates is imperative in rder t reduce data redundancy and t minimize energy cnsumptin. Fr all these reasns, we devted this paper t the cmmunicatins energy efficiency in WSNs. The main bjective f ur wrk cnsists t develp a WSN aut-rganizatin methd ptimizing the cmmunicatin links between sensrs and reducing the flding rates. Fr that, we used the mathematical Khalimsky thery t cnstruct a gegraphic-hierarchical tplgy [11-15]. This thery permits t calculate the ptimized paths when a sensr need t frward data. Theses paths are frmed by a successin f ndes belnging t an emplyed ptimal set f gateways between a surce and destinatin. 3 WSN Deplyment accrding t Khalimsky Tplgy In this sectin we present the Khalimsky thery and the develped algrithms fr the WSN deplyment and the flding f data packets between the sensrs and the sink. 3.1 Khalimsky thery definitins In what fllws, we present sme terminlgy and definitins necessary fr understanding the results f the Khalimsky tplgy.

We simulated a WSN cmpsed f 50 MicaZ sensrs where the energy cnsumptin is mdeled by the PwerTOSSIM-Z plugin, cmpatible with TinyOS2.1, fr each nde [5-7]. The sensrs are deplyed hierarchically and unifrmly accrding t the Khalimsky architecture in a sectr f the plane, with a sink placed at the center f the sectr as shwn in figure 2. This tplgy is defined in a specific file that we called ''tplgy.txt'' in TOSSIM t cnfigure the links and adjacency lists between the simulated sensrs as shwn in figure 10. This file defines the gain in the 4 th clumn between the surce nde in the 2 ed clumn and the destinatin nde in the 3 rd clumn. Figure 10: extract f tplgy file cnfiguratin in TOSSIM simulatr T launch the simulatin we have develped a prgram file written in the Pythn language.

13 Transactins n Netwrks and Cmmunicatins; Vlume 2, Issue 6, December 2014 between sensrs. When a nde sends a data packet by flding, the number f used sensrs determined by Khalimsky thery is limited by ndes frming ptimal paths as shwn in figure 3. 6 Advantages & Future Wrks Our slutin fr deplying a WSN based n the tplgy f Khalimsky can be applied effectively in many areas such as dmtic field and industrial field, fr mnitring and building security f infrastructures and industrial areas against fires, gas leakage and pllutin. In these areas, it is necessary t deply fixed ndes acting as gateways t cnvey the data ruting tward base statin. These gateways prvide the transfer f data cllected by sensrs members gruped int clusters t the base statin. The cllected data can be imprtant and have a real-time aspect. In this case, the data must be transmitted t the base statin in a safe and immediately manner. S with ur flding slutin, based n the Khalimsky thery, it s pssible t perfrm the tasks in an ptimal way with minimal data redundancy and the minimum cnsumed energy. Fr future wrks, we have used the Khalimsky thery t develp a ruting prtcl fr WSNs, based n the clustering methd and the multi-agent systems. These WSNs may cntain sensrs randmly deplyed and prefixed sensrs acting as gateway. The randmly deplyed sensrs are gruped int clusters. Each cluster must be able t reach ne r mre gateways. Gateway sensrs are deplyed accrding t the Khalimsky tplgy. The simulatin tests, in the prcess, shwed encuraging results. 7 Cnclusin In this paper, we have been develped a nvel hierarchical tplgy fr WSNs based n mathematical Khalimsky thery. This methd calculates a subset f ndes t use as gateways fr rting data between a surce nde and a destinatin nde. This subset f these ndes includes all ptimal paths. Hwever, a diffused data packet by a nde will never g thrugh utside this subset. This implies the reductin f the flding rates in a WSN. Thereafter, a cnsiderable minimizatin f the energy cnsumptin is dented.
