(Re-)configuration of Communication Networks in the Context of M2M

Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication is of increasing importance in industry due to novel applications, i.e., smart metering or tracking devices in the logistics domain. These applications provoke new requirements for mobile phone networks, which have to be adapted in order to meet these future requirements. Hence, reconfiguration of such networks depending on M2M application scenarios is highly required. In this paper, we discuss modeling for reconfiguration of mobile phone networks in case of M2M applications and present the foundations behind our tool including the used modeling language and the reconfiguration algorithm.
