Enhancing Graph Routing Algorithm of Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks Using the Covariance-Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This paper proposed a routing algorithm for IWSNs. However, the following corrections should be considered:
1- Acronyms should be written in an appropriate way, e.g., "swarm intelligence (SI) -> Swarm Intelligence (SI)." However, some of the acronyms are correct, e.g., Covariance-Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES).
2- The authors should clarify their purpose of optimality and objective function. In computer science and operational research, optimization and objective function are defined in the mathematical formulation.
3- Optimality of the proposed algorithm should be proved.
4- Some figures have very low quality, e.g., Figure 5.
5- The description and goals related to Figure 7 is unclear.

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
It is so hard to read this version of the manuscript because of the corrections!
As a reader, I can't detect the results that are shown in Figure 7!
