摘要：Energy efficient clustering is well known optimization problem which has been studied widely to extend lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Grid computing, enable different entities to share computational, memory, and data resources using a flexible and secure framework. These resources enable users to run computational jobs that exceed the capabilities of available sensor at any single location. The algorithm presented here is to create a virtual cluster within established clusters in wireless sensor network to share individual sensor resources, which permits the wireless sensor network to gain extra cluster resources to run resource consuming applications with private resource control policies. According to the power issue and the unpredictable wireless network characteristics, it is possible that applications running on the sensor nodes might fail due to sensor energy termination, hence, using Cuckoo Search Optimization (CSO) algorithm is necessary as inspired nature technique to improve the availability of sensor nodes by electing the optimum sensor node from each cluster according to precise constrains applied by network specifications. The motivation for this virtual cluster is to create a virtual cluster environment with heterogeneous resources from clusters with homogeneous nodes when a critical event take place and need a service might requires several sensors resources which make it necessary to arrange these resources to achieve the required service
