Abstract

In Machine-to-Machine (M2M) applications, devices monitor events (e.g., temperature, inventory level), which is relayed through a communication network infrastructure (e.g. Internet, LTE) to an application (software program running on a server connected to the Internet), that translates the monitored event into some meaningful information to be able to take collaborative decisions with limited or no human intervention. With the availability of IPv6 address, it is possible to interconnect everything in this universe. By using the concept of interconnecting things, several applications can be envisioned to make the world smarter. Internet of Things (IoT) is a paradigm whose aim is to implement the concept of interconnection of everything by using all possible technologies and others means. M2M communica- tion is one of the components of Internet of Things (IoT) whose goal is to make the communication smooth and seamless between any two networking enabled devices. According to the researchers by the end of 2014, 1.5 billion devices and by the end of 2020, 20 billion devices will be part of M2M communication.
