Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Radio Frequency ID (RFID), Second Edition
Mind Commerce LLC, April 2011, Pages: 293
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications and Radio Frequency ID (RFID) together represent a means of direct communication between connection hardware and the object that needs monitoring: the information about its status of performance is directly sent to a computer system without the need for human intervention. This makes automation of processes or consumer action possible.
The technology that utilized originates largely in the manufacturing and industrial processes industry, where physical assets networking have been done for decades. The goal of M2M-RFID is exactly as of a plant-floor automation systems or remote-monitoring solutions: it evolves getting information from sensors in a device and transmitting it to an IT network.
This report evaluates the working aspects of M2M along with the details of RFID, provides deep insights into telecommunication technologies, reviews the latest developments within M2M, and provides further analysis through in-depth case study examples. The report includes a listing of M&A activity.
The report includes:
- M2M Standards for RFID
- Security issues for M2M RFID
- Explanation of Risk & Security Analysis
- An evaluation of the available Technologies and its Products
- An overview of the applications of RFID
- Evaluation of RFID application in Healthcare, Defense, etc
- Information about M2M Companies and Takeovers
- A detailed explanation and evaluation techniques of Fault Analysis
- A brief evaluation of an M2M Telecom Company
- Assessment of technology used in many real life case studies
- Future and Roadmap of M2M with special focus on RFID
