Reachback Firefly Synchronicity with Late Sensitivity Window in Wireless Sensor Networks

Event synchronicity is a popular requirement in wireless sensor network. Firefly synchronicity phenomenon provides some inspiration. In this paper, we introduce a late sensitivity window to the Reachback Firefly Algorithm. The simulation result shows that the introduction of late sensitivity window not only reduces the time to synchronization, but also the overload of the network. Furthermore, it releases the dependency on choosing of optimized parameters, such as the couple strength, to work in a specific environment. Thus, synchronization on a network can be easily achieved in various scenarios.
