Machine to Machine Solutions Week in Review

We use many devices to communicate, and soon enough, they’ll all be communicating with each other. Machine to machine (M2M) solutions enable communication between devices, fueling the growth of the Internet of Things. And as the number of connected devices continues to grow, so does the news we see each week. Here are the top machine to machine stories this week.

Analysts at Parks Associates recently published a white paper that revealed that machine to machine communications involving smart networked devices are going through a period of fundamental change and growth. Mobile operators, automotive, oil and gas and healthcare businesses are deploying M2M capabilities in products that are used by consumers such as electronics, connected home, connected car and wireless health and fitness devices.
