Mr. Riasatian spoke at the second conference on Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems implementation at the Iran University of Science and Technology on October 29-30, 2007. He discussed how TUGA Group, an engineering company, has fully implemented the SAP enterprise software across its business operations. TUGA is a pioneer in engineering, procurement, and construction projects in power plants and refineries around the world. The SAP system allows TUGA to provide integrated solutions to customers across project management, engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning.

The document discusses automation and its various tools. It provides an overview of automation, including its history and concepts. It describes programmable logic controllers and supervisory control and data acquisition systems. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of automation as well as some of its applications.
Queuing theory is used to model waiting lines in systems where demand fluctuates. It can be used to optimize resource allocation to minimize costs associated with customer wait times and unused service capacity. The key elements of a queuing system include arrivals, a queue or waiting line, service channels, and a service discipline for determining order of service. Customers arrive according to a Poisson distribution and service times follow an exponential distribution. The goal of queuing analysis is to determine the number of service channels needed to balance wait time costs and idle resource costs.
This document provides an overview of queuing theory, which is used to model waiting lines. It discusses key concepts like arrival processes, service systems, queuing models and their characteristics. Some examples where queuing theory is applied include telecommunications, traffic control, and manufacturing layout. Common elements of queuing systems are customers, servers and queues. The document also presents examples of single and multiple channel queuing models.
The document discusses automation and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). It describes how automation delegates human control functions to equipment to achieve higher productivity, superior product quality, efficient energy usage, and improved safety. It then defines PLCs, explaining that they are industrial computers that monitor inputs, make decisions based on programs, and control outputs to automate processes. PLCs have input and output modules, a central processing unit, memory, and power supply. They use ladder logic programming and have advantages like increased reliability but also disadvantages like high initial costs. The document also briefly introduces supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems.
1) The document discusses the opportunity for technology to improve organizational efficiency and transition economies into a "smart and clean world."
2) It argues that aggregate efficiency has stalled at around 22% for 30 years due to limitations of the Second Industrial Revolution, but that digitizing transport, energy, and communication through technologies like blockchain can help manage resources and increase efficiency.
3) Technologies like precision agriculture, cloud computing, robotics, and autonomous vehicles may allow for "dematerialization" and do more with fewer physical resources through effects like reduced waste and need for transportation/logistics infrastructure.
