Analyze This
Analysts have their hands full when it
comes to explaining the
James Brehm Mike Sapien opportunities in M2M: as sensor

more robust and ubiquitous, it
seems that every vertical industry
is ripe for M2M applications. This
panel of analysts will share their
insight as to which trees are
growing fastest in the forest of

It’s been said that “time is money”
and luck is about being at the right
place at the right time. In remote
asset management, the key is to

The Evolution of Remote Monitoring and M2M
Solutions for the Healthcare Industry
Henry Rosen For many conditions, healthcare provider office
VP of M2M Business visits are being replaced by home
Solutions monitoring, thanks to wireless technologies.
Numerex works with global medical device
Numerex manufacturers, managed care providers,
and accountable care organizations to
enable wireless monitoring, and in the
process, the growth of this increasingly
popular practice. This session would spark
discussions around hot topics including
wireless device standards and FCC
compliance mandates, POTS plain old
telephone service migration within
households and how this affects inhome
healthcare services, and new technologies
across wireless medical monitoring devices.

The Best Care Anywhere: Heart & Hearth
Pressure on hospitals to release patients as
soon as possible does not change the
Jim Cairns Edward Branham need for doctors to continue monitoring
Multitech Verizon Wireless their patients. Heart Attack patients
need to be monitored since often they
have reoccurences. This session covers
the use of remote health care systems
to track the status of patients. Home is

Remote Patient Care: No Longer Out of
Sight or Out of Mind
Tracking Alzheimer’s patient is not about
the diagonistics but about the location.
Many Alzheimers patients live at home
Steve Hudson Chris Mayer or at a facility where the grounds are
Omnilink Verizon designed for their comfort. However the
patients disorientation can lead to
roaming. Monitoring location is
essential for the quality of life. This
session covers the use of remote health
care systems to track the whereabouts,
Ken Hosac and the status of patients.

The Network’s Role in Advancing M2M Innovations
With a forecasted 15B connected devices by 2015,
and 50B by 2020, the proliferation of M2M
implementations creates an enormous potential
for added complexity to the network.
Pursing areas of commonality where verticals and
ICTs converge is essential for discovering the
features/functions and parameters to support a
Gale Lightfoot common M2M service platform.
Co-Chair, Establishing a "Trusted Environment" for all entities
ATIS M2M Focus Group associated with vertical services and applications
is the imperative of the ATIS M2M Focus Group,
and will be the topic discussed at this session.

Standards for Mobile Services
The world of the carrier is filled with work
orders that delegate work and track
workflow. However traditionally this has
been an internal document, but with
the world of M2M the carrier has a
greater roll in deliver and testing a
complete experience. TIA has been
looking at the implementation
requirements for M2M solutions and
will present their strategy to make M2M
a routine service request from carriers.

Making Rapid Deployment a Reality for
M2M
Implementing an M2M strategy can seem
John Canosa daunting, as many issues converge
Thingworx during rollouts. This is where partners
Nikki Cuban with experience make all the difference.

speed up deployments, and provide
quality assurance that reduces costly

Solving the Back End with Platform Solutions
With the diversity of sensors, we cannot say
Tom Saffron that once “we’ve seen one M2M sensor,
Viewbiquity we’ve seen them all.” But there is a need for
commonality when it comes to items like
configuration, monitoring, managing and
reporting. How can platforms for the
backend enable greater diversity and more
flexible strategies, while streamlining the
Alex Vishnev economics for M2M? This panel answers
Global these questions and many others.

Why is the Smart Grid an M2M Market?
Why is the Smart Grid an M2M
SayedHosain Robert Gustin Market?The Smart Grid Market is
Aeris Networks Sprint affected by price fluctuations in supply
that make it hard for companies to have
a business case that stays on track,

Smarter Solutions for the Smart
Grid
Ironically, as most carriers talk
about dumb networks, most
Ron Zimmer utilities see the SmartGrid as
Continental being utility centric. The real
Automated question is: “what are the
Buildings

opportunities for really smart
applications, and how can they
be delivered?” Are the smarts
really in the grid, or at the edge?

The Smart Grid takes I.T. to make it work
With all these machines, it’s logical that
integration is a key component, and the
AmmarRayes SmartGrid is one place where traditional
Cisco IT integration services are finding
customers in need of their services. This
session will evaluate what’s driving the
opportunities for SmartGrid IT and it will
discuss how it translates into other
vertical opportunities.
