A New Automation Approach for Fuel Station Management System

Öz

Day by day the number of vehicles and machines are increasing in the modern world. In the present day’s scenario, the demand of fuel is increasing because of vehicles and machines are depending on fuel. The long line in front of fuel stations, especially in front of gas pumps is a common scenario in the daily life that waste the valuable time. In Bangladesh, the fuel stations are operated manually that causes the delay. In this paper, we have developed an automated fuel management system that can maintain the account of the fuel stations. The results of this experiment print a receipt automatically after every transaction and can monitor the transactions from remote place via Internet. This management system also helps the fuel stations to become faster and can reduce corruptions in transactions of fuel stations.

Benzin İstasyonu Yönetim Sistemleri için Yeni bir Otomasyon Yaklaşımı

Öz

Makine ve araç sayısı modern dünyada günden güne artmaktadır. Araçlar ve makinalar benzinle çalıştıkları için yakıta olan bağımlılık gün geçtikçe artmaktadır. Benzin istasyonlarındaki pompaların önündeki uzun kuyruklar günümüzde çok karşılaşılan değerli zamanın israfıdır. Bangladeş’te benzin istasyonları manuel olarak işletilmekte bu da gecikmelere sebep olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada benzin istasyonlarının hesaplarını koruyabilmek için otomatik yakıt yönetim sistemi geliştirilmiştir. Bu deney sonucu olarak bütün işlemlerden sonra fatura otomatik olarak yazdırabilmekte ve işlemler internet yolu ile uzaktan da kontrol edilebilmektedir. Bu sistem benzin istasyonlarındaki işlemleri hızlandıracağı gibi olası aksaklıklar da giderebilir
