Abstract Machine-to-Machine (M2 M) communication refers to communication among machines without or with only limited human inter- vention. The paper deals with context-awareness in M2 M communication and proposes rich presence information as a concept to address context information in a multi-agent system supporting networking of machines. Rich Presence Information Data (RPID) extensions suitable for M2 M are introduced into Context-aware Mobile Agent Network model. Case study describing context information related to energy consumption and energy saving is presented. Results based on simulations and measurements in a laboratory test-bed are discussed.
