It has many advantages such as simple parallel distributed computation, distributed storage, and fast learning. Four factors related to a node becoming a cluster-head are drawn by analysis, which are energy ( energy available in each node), number (the number of neighboring nodes), centrality ( a value to classify the nodes based on the proximity how central the node is to the cluster), and location (the distance between the base station and the node).

A group of cluster-heads are selected according to the size of network. Then the base station broadcasts a message containing the list of cluster-heads' IDs to all nodes.
