The recent development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) technology has been envisioned as a promising paradigm to cater for the growing maritime activities. However, the increasing growth of marine services poses challenges for processing maritime data. In this paper, we propose a surface computing paradigm in maritime networks, in which multi-task sensed by UAVs can be offloaded to multiple beacon stations. Multiple UAVs can process their workloads locally or offload to surface computing. Taking the system welfare and energy consumption into consideration, we present an optimization problem to determine the selection of beacon stations and the offloading decision, with the objective of maximizing the system welfare. We propose a hybrid auction and convex optimization approach to address the formulated problem. Finally, simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithms compared to several baselines.
