What is machine-to-machine communication?

See – http://internetofthingsagenda.techtarget.com/de...

Machine to machine (M2M) is a broad label that can be used to describe any technology that enables networked devices to exchange information and perform actions without the manual assistance of humans.

M2M communication is often used for remote monitoring. In product restocking, for example, a vending machine can message the distributor when a particular item is running low. M2M communication is an important aspect of warehouse management, remote control, robotics, traffic control, logistic services, supply chain management, fleet management and telemedicine. It forms the basis for a concept known as the Internet of Things (IoT).

Key components of an M2M system include sensors, RFID, a Wi-Fi or cellular communications link and autonomic computing software programmed to help a networked device interpret data and make decisions. The most well-known type of M2M communication is telemetry, which has been used since the early part of the last century to transmit operational data. Pioneers in telemetrics first used telephone lines — and later, on radio waves — to transmit performance measurements gathered from monitoring instruments in remote locations. The Internet and improved standards for wireless technology have expanded the role of telemetry from pure science, engineering and manufacturing to everyday use in products like home heating units, electric meters and Internet-connected appliances. Products built with M2M communication capabilities are often marketed to end users as being “smart.”

Currently, M2M does not have a standardized connected device platform and many M2M systems are built to be task- or device-specific. It is expected that as M2M becomes more pervasive, vendors will need to agree upon standards for device-to-device communications.

Read carefully.. this is ONLY for machine to machine (M2M) communication and it is not meant for the general public.

that means, if you have electricity billing meter in home/shop/windmills (every one have), new device will be installed with inbuilt simcard (different size) so it send your billed amount directly to electricity board without visited by person to note the meter reading…lot of appliances, in tamilnadu these guys are planned for pilot project.

offtopic:
in windmill taking reading from meter everyday, that a tedious task in remote region.

The news regarding changes in numbering of mobile connections from 10 digits to digits will not affect mobile phone users.

Its for M2M communications only. thats Machine to Machine not Mobile to Mobile.

The M2M SIM cards are used in automated machines that require network connectivity. The future is with IoT(Internet of Ihings) and high speed data services, where we require more numbers for M2M services. Such numbers will b 13 digits.

thats what the order says…
Now also 10 digit numbers r alloted for similar purposes like automated machines.

Existing numbers in 10 digits used in mobile phones will not be changed.

That’s not accurate, most IoT networking will be done over wifi or BT, besides what do you think the cellular requirements (2g/3g/4g/5g) would be if all these machines come with embedded SIMSIM insertion is not practical.
