Implementing LWM2M in Constrained IoT Devices

March 1, 2016

Lightweight M2M (LWM2M) is a system standard in the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA). It aims to develop a fast deployable client-server specification to provide machine to machine (M2M) services. It acts as an OMA device management (OMA-DM) successor for use in M2M and provides efficient device management as well as security workflow for IoT applications using the same protocol, thus offering enhanced simplicity. It also addresses service and management needs of constrained M2M devices over a number of transports and bearers. The LWM2M specification provides APIs for device configuration, connectivity monitoring/statistics, security, firmware update, server provisioning and so on. The widely used Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) provides in-built binding for LWM2M, thus making it particularly appealing for the Internet of Things (IoT).

Smart solution for sustainable cities

whitePaper | January 8, 2020

The 19th century was a century of empires. The 20th century was a century of states. The 21st century will be a century of cities.” This quote by Wellington E. Webb, former mayor of the City of Denver, seems plausible when you look at the numbers: Although cities cover only a fraction of the Earth’s surface, they are already home to more than half of the world’s population.

Global Industry Standards for Industrial IoT

whitePaper | June 2, 2021

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a rapidly expanding world of connected objects. As IIoT systems proliferate, large amounts of data are consumed by machine learning algorithms and shared between partners, customers and others. IIoT is a technology environment in which integration and interoperability are critical capabilities and the complexity of this environment makes this difficult to achieve. Standards play a critical role in IIoT for five main reasons. First, users and vendors cannot engineer a custom interface every time components or systems need to interact. Standards can make this explosion of interfaces manageable; they are the lingua franca for interoperability. For suppliers, this eliminates needless costs related to common capabilities instead encouraging a focus on innovations that add value.

The Rise of Single Pair Ethernet in IIoT

whitePaper | May 12, 2022

Traditionally the networking architectures used within the industrial domain have been many and varied. With its established enterprise IT roots, Ethernet was always going to be the backbone network of choice to link the worlds of operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) together. However, since the arrival of Industrial IoT (IIoT), connecting all the production assets, such as sensors, actuators, robots, and the myriad of other equipment, typically involved proprietary, vendor-specific networking. The availability of single-pair Ethernet (SPE) looks set to change this legacy approach.
