The manufacturing industry has been revolutionized by Industry 4.0, vastly improving the process, increasing production quality and capacity. Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication protocols were developed to strengthen bind this ecosystem allowing machines communicate with each other. SECS/GEM protocol is at heart of industry, thriving as a control system for years. It equipment used equipment...

Although many environments are powered by M2M solutions, users do not have a simple way to gather their collective knowledge and program devices’ behaviour. Also, Telco providers still lack proper components for enabling integrated services over their networks. We present the final architecture of the APOLLO project, which delivers a enhanced M2M platform encompassing sensors, management and ap...

The purpose of this paper is to define and describe a cloud M2M (Machine 2 Machine) platform, that is used for tele-monitoring renewable energy sources, with a specific focus on hydro-energy. We will present findings related to cloud architecture and resource management used for M2M systems, with the goal to assess the level of efficiency and security offered by these technologies. The paper fi...

We developed a machine transliteration system combining mpaligner (an improvement of m2m-aligner), DirecTL+, and some Japanesespecific heuristics for the purpose of NEWS 2012. Our results show that mpaligner is greatly better than m2m-aligner, and the Japanese-specific heuristics are effective for JnJk and EnJa tasks. While m2m-aligner is not good at long alignment, mpaligner performs well at l...

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication is crucial in developing Internet of Things (IoT). As it well known that cellular networks have been considered as the primary infrastructure for M2M communications, there are several key issues to be addressed order deploy communications over networks. Notably, rapid growth traffic dramatically increases energy consumption, degrades performance existing H...

previously investigated, since each device may communicate with any other device. First, this paper presents a M2M measurement campaign conducted in an open-plan office area at 925 MHz. The measurements are analyzed to demonstrate spatial correlation between neighboring hops in the network. Then, the measurements are used to numerically characterize the effectiveness of a minimum-energy routing...

Single crystals of CsU(2)Te(6) were synthesized from the reaction of U, Te, and Cs(2)Te(3) at 1273 K. CsU(2)Te(6) crystallizes in the space group Cmcm in the CsTh(2)Te(6) structure type. The asymmetric unit comprises one U (site symmetry m2m), one Cs (m2m; half-occupancy) and two Te atoms (m.. and m2m). The structure of CsU(2)Te(6) consists of infinite [U(2)Te(6)] layers perpendicular to [010] ...
