Abstract(s)

This work deals with how to efficiently deploy an indoor wireless sensor network, assuming a novel approach in which we try to leverage existing infrastructure. Thus, given a set of low-cost sensors, which can be plugged into the grid or powered by batteries, a collector node, and a building plan, including walls and plugs, the purpose is to deploy the sensors optimising three conflicting objectives: average coverage, average energy cost, and average reliability. Two MultiObjective (MO) genetic algorithms are assumed to solve this issue, NSGA-II and SPEA2. These metaheuristics are applied to solve the problem using a freely available data set. The results obtained are analysed considering two MO quality metrics: hypervolume and set coverage. After applying a statistical methodology widely accepted, we conclude that SPEA2 provides the best performance on average considering such data set.
