The wide adoption of the Wireless Senor Networks (WSNs) applications around the world has increased the amount of the sensor data which contribute to the complexity of Big Data. This has emerged the need to the use of in-network data processing techniques which are very crucial for the success of the big data framework.

The Attempts of developing adapted and scalable wireless ad-hoc routing protocols has increased by research and development individuals and institutions in the last few years due to the high availability of low cost wireless devices. This has led to developing many routing protocols which has been mainly categorized into Proactive and Reactive ad-hoc routing protocols. The ability of most of the proposed protocols to adapt in different conditions is one of the researchers and developers biggest problems, in many performance comparisons; if a protocol could outperform other protocols in one performance comparison, it may fail in another comparison with the same routing protocols, but in different network parameters. Such parameters are the core of protocol's adaptability, yet they reflect the requirements for a protocol to work properly in daily use manner. Based on above, Zone Routing Protocol has been configured using OPNET simulator to dynamically set its own attributes in order to adapt in different environments and according to the network's parameters such as traffic load, mobility model, power constraints, network intensity and / or any other effective parameter.
