2012 International Journal of Computer Applications  
Wireless sensor networks have a broad variation of applications within the surveillance, military, atmosphere monitoring and medical fields. Coverage and connectivity of sensor networks demonstrates how well a region is monitored. The coverage issues have been studied extensively. Particularly the coverage with respect to connectivity and network lifetime effectiveness is emphasized. Constructing a connected, absolutely encapsulated and energy efficient sensor network is efficacious for real
