Abstract

M2M communications promise unprecedented prospects for communication specialists: the world communication network currently covers less than 0.1% of the total amount of equipment (estimated at 50 billion). Having considered the problem of energy saving, the European Commission in 2009 issued a mandate for the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ESTI) to create a common open architecture for metering the domestic use of water, gas, electricity, and heat. We consider the choice of the M-Bus protocol as a unified tool for implementing the interfaces of M2M devices. A new approach to open programming interfaces is proposed.
