Abstract

This presentation shows the business application suite mHub that implements the core components of a manufacturing execution system (MES) purely with a specially developed application wiki distribution. The novelty of the application wiki is its "wiki as business application platform" approach, that abstracts all necessary technologies to implement the solution within the edit page area. Other than application wikis targeted for end users, that merely serve as query interfaces to existing business applications, this application wiki enables developers to script every aspect of the application domain within the wiki itself.
