In this paper, we propose a new self-organization scheme, DICSION (Data-centrIC Self-organizatION), which can improve the energy efficiency and prolong network lifetime of wireless sensor networks. Since a large number of sensor nodes are densely deployed, neighboring nodes may be very close to each other. Therefore, we assume that sensor nodes have a high possibility to collect the duplicate data about the same event. DICSION can considerably reduce the energy consumption because a zone head only can transmit and receive a representative data to base station or neighboring zone heads after zone formation. Our performance evaluation results demonstrate that DICSION outperforms to STEM.
