<p>Thanks to advances in wireless communications, embedded systems, and IP networking, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications provide a huge opportunity for growth in M2M Service Applications. Future M2M Solutions are envisioned to connect billions of existing and new devices, ranging from high-end smart mobile terminals to low-cost resource-constrained wireless sensors or Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags. M2M technologies can be beneficially applied to a broad range of use cases for smart grid, telematics, eHealth/mHealth, vehicular networking and systems, industry control, home automation, and environmental monitoring.</p>
<p>Current M2M markets, however, are highly fragmented. Various vertical M2M solutions have been designed independently and separately for different applications, which inevitably impacts or even impedes large-scale M2M deployment. Today&rsquo;s deployments also pose additional technical challenges in managing large amounts of disparate M2M devices, security guarantee, and service discovery.</p>
