   Automation
   Automation is the technology by which a process or procedure is performed with minimal human assistance.
   Automation, or automatic control, is the use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery,
   processes in factories, boilers, and heat-treating ovens, switching on telephone networks, steering, and stabilization of
   ships, aircraft, and other applications and vehicles with minimal or reduced human intervention.
   «The first rule of any technology used in a business is that
   automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the
   efficiency. The second is that automation applied to an inefficient
   operation will magnify the inefficiency.»
   Bill Gates
