An ever increasing number of everyday machines and objects Programme
are now embedded with sensors or actuators and have the
ability to communicate over the Internet. Collectively they make
up the Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT draws together various
technologies including Radio Frequency Identification (RFID),
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) service platforms and Wireless Online
Sensor Networks. Potential applications and services include smart Work
devices, smart cities, smart grids, the connected car, eHealth, Programme
home automation and energy management, public safety and
remote industrial process control.

oneM2M draws together the many diverse IoT-related
business domains including telematics and intelligent
transportation, healthcare, utilities, industrial automation
and smart homes. The initiative is developing specifications
that will enable users to build platforms by which devices
and services can be connected, regardless of the underlying Online

technology used, thus enabling interoperability across IoT Programme
applications. In this way, oneM2M’s specifications will reduce
complexity for the application developer and lower costs for
service providers.

Each oneM2M partner standards body publishes oneM2M
specifications as its own local specifications, thereby ensuring
there is one global set of specifications, recognised in each
region.

By the end of 2017, oneM2M expects to issue its third
release of specifications. Release 3 will focus on the use of
