Thank you for your contribution.
Machine to Machine 2008 – Conference
topics
Focus : communication technologies.
They are at the heart of every M2M project, they are the essence
of M2M. We put them under the limelights this year as they will
be the focus of our conference cycle.
M1 Tuesday
April 1st, 2008 10:00am – 11:30am
Keynote conference – "Machine
to Machine :
a state
of the art"
Today, Machine to Machine technologies have become a must. They are defined as
the wedding between information & communication technologies and intelligent
and communicating objects. They aim at having those objects interacting with
the company's or the user's organization information system without any human
intervention.
Here our panel of M2M specialists speakers will draw a panorama of the market
and M2M technologies for you |

M2 Tuesday
April 1st, 2008 2:30pm – 3:30pm
" Which technology for which
communication?"
Mesh, WiFi radio transmission, ZigBee, Bluetooth, GSM/GPRS, 3G... it's hard to
make a choice among such an abundance. And what if an M2M project could also
and quite simply rely on traditional analogical phone lines (when for instance
the transmitter is nestled under the earth so that GSM transmissions won't work)?
Or on a DSL line? Our panel of guests will do the spadework on this technological
jungle for you.

M3 Wednesday
April 2nd, 2008 10:00am – 11:30am
" Communicating objects"
So-called intelligent RFID tags, communication terminals allowing a permanent
localization and monitoring of containers traveling all around the world, tomorrow
RFID cell phones, intelligent fridges doing their own restocking automatically...
100 billion of these objects should spread all over the landscape in 3 years
time, i.e. more than 10 per capita on earth. But what exactly are these communicating
objects, for what kind of practical purpose?

M4 Wednesday
April 2nd, 2008 2:30pm – 3:30pm
" Innovation is great. Creating
value is even better – Economical
and other drivers of M2M projects"
Implementation costs of M2M technologies are dropping, even dramatically. Pallets
or containers tracking, fuel, water or power consumption measuring, maintenance
of devices such as boilers or printers and so on, everything being done remotely
and seamlessly for the user, have become commonplace. Theses innovative solutions
are attractive for organizations. But while the costs are dropping other constrains
and pitfalls, sometimes hardly or not measurable, appear. Should organizations
systematically and unconditionally go for any M2M project that looks economically
viable?

M5 Thursday
April 3rd, 2008 10:00am – 11:00am
" Practical M2M or 'Users organizations are
talented'"
From remote monitoring to "intelligent cities" and domotics via remote
patients monitoring or fleet management, there's more M2M applications every
day and each year brings its load of new ideas, that one could not even imagine
the year before.
These few practical experiences are meant to provide you with some guidelines,
ideas or maybe just to comfort you in your own choices and trends.

M6 Thursday
April 3rd, 2008 2:30pm – 3:30pm
" What's the current situation of M2M's market massification?"
Thanks to the broadening of RFID tags usage, to the trivialization and miniaturization
of SIM cards and to the dramatic dropping of a lot of other technology costs,
such as GSM subscriptions for instance, objects and other resources (cars, machines
and so on) tracking activities to identify and monitor them for different purposes
(leaks, intrusions, embezzlements or vandalism to name just a few) are rapidly
expanding. Though, even if it happens at a dramatic pace, mass adoption of these
technologies is not as quick as it was initially foreseen. Our speakers panel
will review the current situation and envision short and mid-term perspectives.
