Martin Weiss is a Professor and Associate Director of the Center for Governance and Markets at the University of Pittsburgh's School of Computing and Information. He holds a Ph.D. in Engineering and Public Policy from Carnegie Mellon University, an M.S. in Computer, Information, and Control Engineering from the University of Michigan, and a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Northeastern University. His research focuses on techno-economic models of spectrum use, polycentric governance frameworks for spectrum sharing, and blockchain applications in telecommunications regulation. He teaches courses on telecommunications policy and networks.
Recent work includes projects funded by the National Science Foundation exploring secondary spectrum markets, spectrum sharing mechanisms, and dynamic spectrum access. His research integrates legal, economic, and technical dimensions to address challenges in spectrum management, including interference mitigation for satellite constellations and tribal sovereignty in spectrum allocation. He has authored two books and over 100 articles on spectrum policy, blockchain governance, and regulatory frameworks.
Publications highlight his interdisciplinary approach, from analyzing FCC experimental licenses to designing blockchain-based enforcement mechanisms for spectrum sharing. His work on polycentric governance models has been applied to amateur radio communities and tribal spectrum sovereignty initiatives. Current projects emphasize spectrum rights in outer space and the socio-technical implications of decentralized governance systems.
