Video sensor networks (VSNs) has become the recent research focus due to the rich information it provides to address various data-hungry applications. However, VSN implementations face stringent constraints of limited communication bandwidth, processing capability, and power supply. In-network processing has been proposed as efficient means to address these problems. The key component of in-network processing, task mapping and scheduling problem, is investigated in this paper. Although task mapping and scheduling in wired networks of processors has been extensively studied, their application to VSNs remains largely unexplored. Existing algorithms cannot be directly implemented in VSNs due to limited resource availability and shared wireless communication medium. In this work, an application-independent task mapping and scheduling solution in multi-hop VSNs is presented that provides real-time guarantees to process video feeds. The processed data is smaller in volume which further releases the burden on the end-to-end communication. Using a novel multi-hop channel model and a communication scheduling algorithm, computation tasks and associated communication events are scheduled simultaneously with a dynamic critical-path scheduling algorithm. Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) mechanism is implemented to further optimize energy consumption. According to the simulation results, the proposed solution outperforms existing mechanisms in terms of guaranteeing application deadlines with minimum energy consumption.
