Query scheduling as one of the most important technologies used in query processing has been widely studied recently. Unfortunately, to the best of our knowledge, no previous work focuses on the Minimum Latency Multi-Regional Query Scheduling (ML-MRQS) problem. In this paper, we investigate the ML-MRQS problem in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), which aims to generate a scheduling plan with minimum latency for a more practical query model called Multi-Regional Query (MRQ). A MRQ targets at user interested data from multiple region-sofa WSN, where each region is a subarea of the WSN. We claim that the ML-MRQS problem is NP-hard. Therefore, we propose a heuristic scheduling algorithm Multi-Regional Query Scheduling Algorithm (MRQSA) to solve this problem. Theoretical analysis shows that the latency of MRQSA is upper bounded by 23A + B + C for a MRQ with m query regions R
