Interworking of M2M and oneM2M

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) develops as a next-generation communication system that allows data to be ex-changed without human interaction either wirelessly or through cables between large numbers of connected devices. Different standards, such as 3GPP, ETSI, and oneM2M, have provided M2M system architecture for data communication. This paper focuses on oneM2M standard for M2M and Internet of Things (IoT)-based services and applications, such as home area net-works, smart cities and intelligent automation systems. This article explains how oneM2M standard enables data flow in M2M communication, the solutions it offers and the issues it faces in terms of data security and data management. Raw data collected by M2M devices can be concluded as information using data mining and machine learning approaches which are employed in a variety of industries and organizations help to make better decisions. This paper also explains how M2M is rapidly emerging as future technology for communication in various applications for Industries, Healthcare and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).
