Empinia eases the development of graphical rich client applications for the .NET environment based on plugins which can easily be extended. On top of Empinia the EMIS toolkit platform adds generic functionality for the EMIS application domain and forms a common structure for applications built to provide software assistance that addresses actual problems in the application field of EMIS. Software application developers benefit from this toolkit in a way that they can focus in a straight forward manner on close-to-the-problem functionality instead of having to spend much effort in the development of basic software infrastructure before.Text/Conference Paper
