Training workshops from May to July 2022.

Process model library (reaction, crystallization, wet and dry grinding, spray drying, wet and dry granulation, blending, and tablet compression, etc.)

gPROMS Formulated Products is equipped with a library of process models for operations such as reactions, crystallization, wet and dry milling, spray drying, wet and dry granulation, blending, and tablet compression. In case studies applied to pharmaceutical processes, it enables consistent performance analysis of the entire system from active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacturing through formulation processes to oral absorption risk analysis. ■ Solution crystallization analysis ■ Solid-liquid and solid-gas separation, classification, and granulation process analysis ■ Oral absorption analysis This product was developed with the cooperation of major pharmaceutical companies in Europe and the United States. By using mathematical models of raw materials, unit operations, and product performance, it allows for formulation design aimed at optimizing pharmaceuticals and their manufacturing. It enables faster screening of new formulation candidates against quality attributes, including in vivo performance and manufacturability.

For process development, optimal plant design, and operational optimization studies! Simulators for the oil, gas, and chemical industries.

In plant design, equipment sizing, process consideration, and operational optimization, PSE believes that existing process simulators still have room for improvement in terms of convergence for obtaining numerical solutions, constraints of processes they can handle, and customization of process models (model extensibility). The process simulation software developed to meet the needs for more advanced and value-added process plant design and optimization is 'gPROMS Process'. 【Features】 * Libraries for specific applications * Creation of flow sheets using Drag & Drop * High-precision custom model creation and editing functions using gPROMS language * Changes in settings within the same environment from steady-state simulation models to dynamic simulation models * Powerful optimization solution search and analysis functions * Global System Analysis (GSA) * High-Performance Computing (HPC) ★ You can view two "case study materials" available for download. These include examples of achieving high-value product offerings and cost reduction through batch process optimization, as well as successful cases of cost reduction through the optimization of entire plants.

For increasing production volume, optimizing operations, scale-up design, cost reduction, energy saving, etc.!

<gPROMS FormulatedProducts Crystallization Process Library> It can be used for various considerations and decision-making in production volume enhancement, operational improvement, and process optimization. To build efficient procedures (recipes) in the crystallization process, we will efficiently carry out operations in the following flow and achieve these within a short period (approximately 1 to 2 months). Modeling → Experiment → Model Verification (Parameter Estimation, Validation) → Process Optimization Consideration → Scale-Up Consideration The ability to automatically perform parameter estimation with the tool is a significant factor in reducing the consideration period. Additionally, since it is a kinetic model (expressing mechanisms in mathematical formulas), the number of parameters is kept to a necessary minimum. Furthermore, tools that automatically optimize cooling temperature reduction methods and patterns, the amount and timing of seed crystals, evaporation rates, and heating patterns are powerful, and scale-up may be conducted in conjunction with CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations when necessary.

About ROAD: The "Roundtable on the Purpose of Autonomous Driving (ROAD)" conference series has evolved into a unique platform for interdis-ciplinary dialogue and international collaboration in the field of autonomous driving and autonomous mobility. Established in 2016, ROAD has brought together researchers, industry leaders, and public sector stakeholders from six countries across three continents. Based on this background, the upcoming ROAD 2026 will focus on "safety” and "driving AI”—the final pieces of the autonomous driving puzzle—to advance discussions on establishing the foundational framework for ensuring safety quality and obtaining regular-tory approval for autonomous driving. We also intend to discuss the international commonalities and differences regarding the social value brought about by ADS vehicles in terms of automation, intelligent driving, and mobility. We have established a total of five compelling themes for the Round Workshops, consisting of two topics related to “The Last Piece” and three topics related to the social value of ADS, as shown below. 1) Round Workshop 1 - Horizons of E2E Driving AI → Can AI Understand the Driving Environment Like Humans? 2) Round Workshop 2 - Beyond the Unknown: Safety Cases for ADS → Can Safety Ever Be Proven? 3) Round Workshop 3 - Envisioning Smart City Mobility → Can Smart City Mobility Bridge the Mobility Divide? 4) Round Workshop 4 - Logistics Enhancement Through Autonomous Tracking → Will Logistics Become Human-Free? 5) Round Workshop 5 - The Evolution of CASE: SDV/AIDV → Will Automakers Become AI Companies? We hope you’ll all join us!

[Speaker] Masashi Sugita, President and CEO of LEX Style Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] The power consumption of AI servers used in data centers has significantly increased, making traditional air cooling insufficient for operation. This lecture will organize the requirements for introducing a liquid cooling system into air-cooled data centers and explain the implementation method using free cooling with specific design details. When handling high-density AI servers, energy efficiency is required, and the widely used energy efficiency indicator, as well as the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Resource and Energy Agency's PUE regulation of "1.3 or below," will be explained along with practical operational insights. [Lecture Items] 1. Heat dissipation methods for high-density, high-heat AI servers 2. Basics and importance of PUE/pPUE 3. PUE regulation of "1.3 or below" by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Resource and Energy Agency 4. AI server implementation and requirements for new data centers 5. Summary and future outlook 6. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Instructor] Yuichiro Kabushiki, Partner Lawyer at TMI Comprehensive Law Office [Key Lecture Content] With the spread of AI, there is growing attention on the civil liability of developers, providers, and users of AI. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry will publish "Guidelines on the Interpretation and Application of Civil Liability in AI Utilization" in April 2026, and the Ministry of Justice will also establish an expert meeting to examine civil liability related to unauthorized use of images and voices generated by AI in the same month. As the full enforcement of the AI Promotion Act and the revision of AI guidelines are underway, it is necessary to design and operate governance based on the potential responsibilities that may arise retrospectively. In this seminar, based on the guidelines from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and drawing on litigation practice experience as a judge and lawyer, we will organize the basic framework for assessing civil liability and explain fundamental methods for designing and operating governance based on risk analysis. Furthermore, we will examine the framework for civil liability and the design and operation of governance using hypothetical cases that are likely to pose practical issues.

In this seminar, we will welcome Mr. Satoru Hayami from Waseda University, who will explain the latest trends in AI utilization in manufacturing, as well as the evolution of technologies such as agent-based AI and physical AI, and the opportunities and key points for practical application in the manufacturing industry. Furthermore, Mr. Tsubasa Shibata, representative of Next Opt, will introduce processes aimed at practical implementation, incorporating actual case studies from manufacturing sites. We hope you will envision the "potential for AI utilization in your company" and take home hints that will lead to improvements in your operations starting tomorrow. We look forward to your participation.
