Abstract :
The base technologies for realizing distributed sensor network systems using many wireless sensor terminals have developed rapidly. The sensor network systems are expected to find applications in various fields such as disaster prevention, environmental monitoring, agricultural support, health care, logistics, and business applications. M2M (machine-to-machine) technology enables machines to communicate with each other without human intervention. The M2M technology could possibly play big role in the future in applications such as sensor network systems, networked embedded systems and information-processing systems. This paper proposes a set of student experiment methods that assist students to understand the basic M2M technology by implementing sensor network systems.
