| Abstract | For over a decade, the Minimum Cost Coverage Deployment Problem (MCCDP) has been an active research topic in the field of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The MCCDP is modeled as a combinatorial constrained optimization problem which was proven to be NP-Complete. Consequently, many of the existing deployment algorithms designed to solve the MCCDP are based on stochastic optimization techniques. These techniques can be heuristic such as Greedy Heuristics (GHs) or metaheuristic such as Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). However, the performance of these algorithms has not been evaluated thoroughly, especially for solving MCCDPs of large scales, i.e. for deploying large-scale WSNs. Moreover, quantitative comparisons of the different algorithms that belong to these techniques are yet to be conducted, to the best of our knowledge. These comparisons are quite important in providing some insights into the suitability of a technique for a specific WSN deployment problem at hand. In this paper, we present a comparative performance evaluation of four of the existing algorithms designed to solve the MCCDP which are based on the aforementioned stochastic optimization techniques. Performance is evaluated in terms of quality of obtained results, computational cost, convergence speed and deployment scalability. Based on the statistical analysis of the experimental results, a comparison is conducted to highlight the comparative strengths and shortcomings of each algorithm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
