The main goal of data-aggregation algorithms in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is to gather and aggregate data in an energy efficient manner so that network lifetime is enhanced. In this article, we focus on QoS-based data-aggregation problems in WSNs. Firstly, we provide a definition of the different QoS parameters for data aggregation, such as energy efficiency, network lifetime, data latency and data quality. Then, we compare the different algorithms on each QoS parameter, describe the main features of each algorithm, and highlight the trade-offs between each parameter. Finally, we conclude with possible future research directions on QoS-based data aggregation in WSNs.

Owing to random deployment, environmental factors, dynamic topology, and external attacks, emergence of holes in wireless sensor networks is inescapable. Hole is an area in sensor network around which sensors cease to sense or communicate due to drainage of battery or any fault, either temporary or permanent. Holes impair sensing and communication functions of network; thus their identification is a major concern. This paper discusses different types of holes and significance of hole detection in wireless sensor networks. Coverage hole detection schemes have been classified into three categories based on the type of information used by algorithms, computation model, and network dynamics for better understanding. Then, relative strengths and shortcomings of some of the existing coverage hole detection algorithms are discussed. The paper is concluded by highlighting various future research directions.

Wireless sensor networks consist of hundreds or thousands of nodes with limited energy resources, and thus, efficient use of energy is necessary for these networks. Given that transmissions are the most energy-demanding operation, routing algorithms should consider efficient use of transmissions in their designs in order to extend the network lifetime. To tackle these challenges, a centralized algorithm is proposed, called improved continuous enhancement routing (ICER), for computing routing trees of refined quality, based on data aggregation while being aware of the battery energy state. Comparisons between ICER and other known solutions in the literature are performed. Our experiments show that ICER is able to ensure, on average, the survival of 99.6% and the connectivity of 99.3% of the network nodes compared to 90.2% and 72.4% in relation to the best-compared algorithm. The obtained results show that ICER significantly extends the network lifetime while maintaining the quality of the routing tree.

Wireless sensor networks comprise of an expansive number of distributed sensor gadgets, which are associated and composed through multi-hop steering. Because of the presence of related data and excess in measuring data, data messages can be joined and converged by performing data aggregation work in the steering procedure. To diminish energy utilization is a noteworthy enhancement target of data aggregation approaches, which can be accomplished by diminishing the mandatory correspondence load of steering. To improvise the network lifetime as much as possible in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) the ways for data move are picked in a way that the aggregate energy used along the way is limited. To help high adaptability and better data aggregation, sensor nodes are routinely collected into disjoint, non-covering subsets called clusters. Clusters make various leveled WSNs which consolidate proficient use of constrained assets of sensor nodes and in this manner broadens network lifetime. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate a forefront survey on clustering calculations announced in the writing of WSNs. This paper presents different energy effective clustering calculations in WSNs. From the hypothetical level, an energy show is proposed to approve the advantages of data aggregation on energy utilization. The key parameters which may affect the aggregation execution are additionally examined.

In recent years, energy efficiency and data gathering is a major concern in many applications of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). One of the important issues in WSNs is how to save the energy consumption for prolonging the network lifetime. For this purpose, many novel innovative techniques are required to improve the energy efficiency and lifetime of the network. In this paper, we propose a novel Energy Efficient Clustering and Data Aggregation (EECDA) protocol for the heterogeneous WSNs which combines the ideas of energy efficient cluster based routing and data aggregation to achieve a better performance in terms of lifetime and stability. EECDA protocol includes a novel cluster head election technique and a path would be selected with maximum sum of energy residues for data transmission instead of the path with minimum energy consumption. Simulation results show that EECDA balances the energy consumption and prolongs the network lifetime by a factor of 51%, 35% and 10% when compared with Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH), Energy Efficient Hierarchical Clustering Algorithm (EEHCA) and Effective Data Gathering Algorithm (EDGA), respectively.

The domain of underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) had received a lot of attention recently due to its significant advanced capabilities in the ocean surveillance, marine monitoring and application deployment for detecting underwater targets. However, the literature have not compiled the state-of-the-art along its direction to discover the recent advancements which were fuelled by the underwater sensor technologies. Hence, this paper offers the newest analysis on the available evidences by reviewing studies in the past five years on various aspects that support network activities and applications in UWSN environments. This work was motivated by the need for robust and flexible solutions that can satisfy the requirements for the rapid development of the underwater wireless sensor networks. This paper identifies the key requirements for achieving essential services as well as common platforms for UWSN. It also contributes a taxonomy of the critical elements in UWSNs by devising a classification on architectural elements, communications, routing protocol and standards, security, and applications of UWSNs. Finally, the major challenges that remain open are presented as a guide for future research directions.
