April 24, 2012

Overview

oneM2M– Global Initiative focused on consolidation and

standardization of a common M2M Service Layer which can be embedded in hardware or software

– Objectives are to enhance interoperability, simplify development of applications, boost economies of scale, and reduce standards overlap

– Organization’s principles, scope, structure, IPR regime, levels of participation, rules and procedures, partnership agreement have been defined

– Critical to success is engagement of various business domains/vertical industries

– Planned launch of oneM2M, July 24-26, 2012

Background• Industry group of operators, vendors, vertical market

representatives began to meet early 2011– Objective: To evaluate benefits for consolidation of M2M standardization efforts

in order to reduce the proliferation of customized hardware and software solutions by various industries

– General agreement among participants that a consolidation of efforts would benefit M2M industry and speed time to market with solutions and services

• Meeting of SDOs from U.S, Europe, Japan, Korea and China arranged in July 2011 to begin deliberations on an M2M Global Initiative

• Physical and virtual meetings occurred on regular basis from July through December 2011 to address possible organizational structure of new initiative culminating in agreement in December to move forward with planning and launch of oneM2M

• Communique released on 01/17/12 announcing launch of oneM2M

Scope of WorkoneM2M will develop and maintain Technical Specifications and Reports for:

– Use cases and requirements for a common set of Service Layer capabilities;– Service Layer aspects with high level and detailed service architecture, in light of an access

independent view of end-to-end services;– Protocols/APIs/standard objects based on this architecture (open interfaces & protocols);– Security and privacy aspects (authentication, encryption, integrity verification);– Reachability and discovery of applications;– Interoperability, including test and conformance specifications;– Collection of data for charging records (to be used for billing and statistical purposes);– Identification and naming of devices and applications;– Information models and data management (including store and subscribe/notify

functionality);– Management aspects (including remote management of entities); and– Common use cases, terminal/module aspects, including Service Layer interfaces/APIs

between:– Application and Service Layers– Service Layer and communication functions.
