| Summary: | ITC/USA 2005 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-First Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 24-27, 2005 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada === Cellular networks are best known for the cell phones that they serve, but they also support a far
larger – yet often overlooked – user base: machines with embedded intelligence that permits
them to exchange specific information with other machines. Referred to as telemetry or machine-to-machine (M2M) communications, these devices and services cater to vending machines, truck
trailers and utility meters, to name just a few common applications. M2M has been and will
remain a growth market because it gives enterprises, government agencies and others a powerful
way to cut costs, streamline their operations and improve their competitive position through real-time
data dissemination. |
