<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">Machine-to-machine communication is considered as the
next technology revolution. It involves a huge number of autonomous smart
machines, sharing information and collaborating together. M2M technology
encompasses a large spectrum of applications ranging from e-health and
biomedical sensor networks, to vehicular technology, smart grid and advanced
metering infrastructures. As the voice revenue is in constant decrease, Telecom
operators are energetically supporting this new technology as it is one of the
most promising revenue-generating service.</span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">From a standardization point of view, the M2M paradigm
is still in its infancy. Both ETSI and 3GPP standards do not provide a seamless
and unified M2M architecture, which is a sine qua none condition to the healthy
and sustained development of the M2M market. Furthermore, the spreading of M2M
technologies still hinge on fully providing secure<span> </span>and
fault-tolerance to M2M communications. Finally, in a single M2M network might
coexist several radio technologies (Zig<s><span style="color:red">e</span></s>bee,
bluetooth, UWB, WiFi and Femtocell...), which could dramatically impact M2M
channels with fluctuation and noise.</span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">This workshop aims to gather researchers, engineers
and practitioners both from academia and industry as well as end users who aim
to present recent advances on Machine-to-Machine communications.</span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US">Original contributions on Machine-to-Machine
communications are solicited. The workshop proposes to address, but is not
limited to, the following topics related to M2M communications, paradigms,
frameworks and innovative applications:</span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p>
<br><ul><li>M2M Standardization progress</li><li>Spectrum management for M2M</li><li>Green M2M communication</li><li>M2M system architecture and components</li><li>Security, trust and privacy of M2M devices and services</li>
<li>Mobility management for M2M</li><li>M2M and information centric networking</li><li>Reliability management for M2M</li><li>Medium access technologies and protocols for M2M communication</li><li>M2M traffic models</li>
