5.2.11.2 Actors
M2M services provider: a company that produces and offering smart deceives (sensors) in different form
and use, they also provide sensors in diverse protocols, which will use by final users such as single user or
enterprise.

User: an enterprise, which is interested to convert from ordinary enterprise to become smart enterprise in
term of smart building systems.
Sensor device: smart devices, which are available in different form and uses to help a company to be a smart
building system such as fire detecting sensor, gate-opening sensor and light switcher sensor, and their
relation to each other in term of M2M, these sensor devices usually provide by M2M services provider.

Gateway: A sensor connecter, which is linking smart devices in the different floor and location within smart
building enterprise, through internet to get computing services, which provides by edge cloud computing
services in case of exchange the data.

Control centre: The heart of the smart building, entirely data collected by the sensor device report to the
control centre and all instructions send from the control centre. The control centre is responsible of the
adjusting of the smart devices installed everywhere in the smart building.
Computing provider: edge cloud computing services, which is offering environment of computing such as
applications, processing and storage for smart devices as areas of smart grid.
Trust technology: a technology, which is applying in enterprise smart building to enhance trust in case of
M2M service relationship, among environment of heterogeneous sensors, for example Blockchain.
