    abstract = {Maximization of network lifetime is one of the most vital 
  objective for any Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). The proper organization of 
  nodes become a major technique to expand the lifetime of the network. In this 
  study, Fuzzy Logic Based Clustering Algorithm (FBCA) is applied for producing 
  energy aware cluster with optimal selection of cluster heads. The FBCA is performed 
  within each node which makes it as a distributed approach. The selection criteria 
  for the many existing cluster selection technique is generally based on the 
  Residual Energy (RE). This study considers other parameter like Least Recently 
  Selected (LRS), Number of Neighbours (NN) which has a major influence in network 
  lifetime. The proposed protocol has shown 62% increase of network lifetime using 
  static sink and 47% increase using mobile sink when comapred with few standard 
  protocols taken for consideration. The performance evaluation of the proposed 
  technique is compared with cluster based sensor network protocol. Extensive 
  discussion is done for centralized and distributed sensor network.}
