            Abstract : 
This paper reports a scheme to select the gateway node in WSN. The scheme is inspired by the queen bee selection method in a hive. The queen bee is the leader of a hive, and the dynamics of the hive is controlled by the queen bee. The selection process of queen bee in hive is presented and modelled here first. Motivated by this natural process, we present here a technique to select the gateway node in WSN which outperforms over the existing protocols. A set of rules are synthesized to develop such method.
