I am searching for implementations (with source code) of despeckling
and deskewing.
Preferably based on the OpenCV library. My targets are TIFF files.
If there is some algorithm or code somewhere, I am willing to port it
and/or implemented myself.
Any tips and pointers are much appreciated.

You might want to look at ImageMagick. Among the very many Options
is -despeckle.
See: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php, look at Architecture and
Options first to get an idea. Cruise the code. You know, the usual drill.
I use it less and less now that I've CS3 over OS-X with scripting. Enjoy.
For despeckling, do a search for impulse filter, or median filter. For
deskewing, check out Alvy Ray Smith and Ed Catmull on two-pass
convolutions, specifically rotation which is implementd as a pair of skew
operations.
