    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses may use machine-to-machine communication to provide customized media in response to an autonomous detection of an event, such as a celebration, emergency, or security event. A method may include receiving a request in response to an autonomous detection of an event, whereby the request includes information about the event. Media appropriate for the event may be determined based on the information about the event. The media appropriate for the event may be further adapted according to information on a destination device and users of the destination device. Instructions are then provided to deliver the media appropriate for the event to the destination device.

    Abstract: A method and system for managing M2M traffic in a network is provided. The M2M device sends a message that includes a machine identity for the M2M device. A query is submitted to a database that correlates the machine identity with a QoS parameter or a priority. The message is assigned to one of a plurality of input queues based on the assigned QoS parameter or priority. Each input queue is associated with a delay period so that the message is held in the queue for a period less than the delay period.
