: This paper studies the impact of wireless technologies on enterprises. A multitude of new paradigms and new software technologies have emerged from the web. E-business and e-manufacturing have really transformed concepts and practices in enterprises. Wireless technologies added new possibilities for these technologies, by this work we propose mmanufacturing as a component of e-manufacturing when practiced in mobile environment, then compare e-manufacturing to m-manufacturing.
