Machine To Machine
This technology is also used in a number of machine to machine applications where devices communicate with one another, for example in vehicle tracking systems, amongst other things, where complete network coverage is required but can only be achieved by using all the available networks. A roaming SIM, for example provided in the US by Neometry, can switch to any network, ensuring the best coverage. The cheap calls associated with Roaming SIMS are also paramount to enable certain machine to machine applications to be economically viable. It is anticipated that our exposure to Roaming SIMS, applied in a range of scenarios, will become prevalent as more and more applications for them are brought to market.

Famous quotes containing the word machine:
“The momentary charge at Balaklava, in obedience to a blundering command, proving what a perfect machine the soldier is, has, properly enough, been celebrated by a poet laureate; but the steady, and for the most part successful, charge of this man, for some years, against the legions of Slavery, in obedience to an infinitely higher command, is as much more memorable than that as an intelligent and conscientious man is superior to a machine. Do you think that that will go unsung?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
