Empowered Hybrid Parent Selection for Improving Network Lifetime, PDR, and Latency in Smart Grid

Algorithm 1

Load balancing algorithm of MELT [26].

	Data: N, -the step of the load increase
	Result: compute

	//test this parent P with its new weight
	;
	//track the min ELT with this new weight
	;

	//is this parent the best one?
	ifthen

	end
	//test each parent before taking a decision
