“…In [59], an acoustic event detection system is designed to locate the source (such as a gunfire) using a sensor network, with a PCO-based algorithm being introduced to tackle the synchronization of the acoustic event detection system. It is proven that the PCObased algorithms provide SON systems with desirable synchronization properties, and a higher local coupling strength implies a less time to reach the synchrony.…”

Inspired by swarm intelligence observed in social species, the artificial self-organized networking (SON) systems are expected to exhibit some intelligent features (e.g., flexibility, robustness, decentralized control, and self-evolution, etc.) that may have made social species so successful in the biosphere. Self-organized networks with swarm intelligence as one possible solution have attracted a lot of attention from both academia and industry. In this paper, we survey different aspects of bioinspired mechanisms and examine various algorithms that have been applied to artificial SON systems. The existing well-known bio-inspired algorithms such as pulse-coupled oscillators (PCO)based synchronization, ant-and/or bee-inspired cooperation and division of labor, immune systems inspired network security and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO)-based multipath routing have been surveyed and compared. The main contributions of this survey include 1) providing principles and optimization approaches of variant bio-inspired algorithms, 2) surveying and comparing critical SON issues from the perspective of physicallayer, Media Access Control (MAC)-layer and network-layer operations, and 3) discussing advantages, drawbacks, and further design challenges of variant algorithms, and then identifying their new directions and applications. In consideration of the development trends of communications networks (e.g., largescale, heterogeneity, spectrum scarcity, etc.), some open research issues, including SON designing tradeoffs, Self-X capabilities in the 3 rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE)/LTE-Advanced systems, cognitive machine-tomachine (M2M) self-optimization, cross-layer design, resource scheduling, and power control, etc., are also discussed in this survey.

“…A method for data aggregation, propagation, relaying, and correlation, based on the observation of the effects that different types and intensity of pinpricks have on human limbs was proposed in [22]. A bio-inspired method for time synchronization in acoustic event detection systems based on the behaviour of groups of flashing fireflies was developed by Nunez et al [23]. An overview of applications of ant-inspired methods for solving different tasks in the area of WSN was prepared by Hong et al [17].…”
