Previous algorithms aim at reducing the average energy consumption rate to extend the network lifetime. However, some nodes sometimes may be served as the cluster-head too many times to conserve their energy, resulting in reduced network lifetime. Thus, the large deviation of network lifetime makes these algorithms impractical. This paper proposes a new clustering algorithm which not only reduces the average energy consumption rate, but also converges the residual energies of all nodes on a small interval. Based on the two-region cluster-heads selection mechanism, the coordinator adaptively adjusts the far-near regions to converge the energies of all nodes on a small interval. With the exclusion-circle of cluster-heads, cluster-heads can be distributed evenly in a spatial respect for each round, resulting in reduced energy consumption. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm not only makes cluster-heads distribute evenly in a spatial respect but also converges the residual energies of all nodes on a small interval, resulting in extending the network lifetime significantly and stably. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/719397","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,4,3]],"date-time":"2014-04-03T21:08:34Z","timestamp":1396559314000},"page":"719397","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Convergent Algorithm for Energy-Balanced Cluster-Heads Selection in Wireless Sensor Networks"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1361-6467","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hsing-Lung","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Taipei 106, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tai-An","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Taipei 106, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6559-233X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shu-Hua","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, Jinwen University of Science and Technology, New Taipei 231, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,4,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1-2014-719397","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1389-1286(01)00302-4"},{"key":"B2-2014-719397","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3745\/JIPS.2013.9.2.237"},{"key":"B3-2014-719397","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3745\/JIPS.2012.8.4.589"},{"key":"B4-2014-719397","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/MCOM.2012.6194388"},{"key":"B5-2014-719397","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1186\/2192-1962-2-3","volume":"2","author":"Dhurandher S.","year":"2012","journal-title":"Human-Centric Computing and Information Sciences"},{"key":"B6-2014-719397","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3745\/JIPS.2012.8.3.471"},{"key":"B7-2014-719397","first-page":"15","volume":"3","author":"Ng J.
