By development of sensor and communication technology, M2M (Machine-to-Machine) systems has been gaining much attention recently. A M2M system which connects various sensors and information systems with communication network has a large possibility of application in all fields, such as industry field of manufacturing and agriculture, social field of traffic and energy, and home field of health care and safety control. However, in order to build and deploy M2M systems, there is a major difficulty for engineers in assembling and unifying multiple technologies from various layers. This article describes the trend of M2M technology, such as M2M application integration, M2M framework, M2M technology of network and platform, and M2M technology standardization, based on the activity result of the "M2M Technology Investigation Committees" (2010.10-2012.9) under Technical Committees of Communications in IEEJ.
