World's First Completely Self-Serve Restaurant

International Automated Systems, Inc. (IAUS.OB) ("IAS") announced today the successful debut of its automated technology at Chefplex, the world's first completely self-service order and pay restaurant.

OREM, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 14, 2003--International Automated Systems, Inc. (IAUS.OB) ("IAS") announced today the successful debut of its automated technology at Chefplex, the world's first completely self-service order and pay restaurant.

IAS's OrderXCEL system allows customers to order and pay using cash, check, credit or debit without the need for a cashier.

Chefplex (www.chefplex.com) opened its doors September 2003 to popular reviews. It features five independent authentic restaurants under one roof. Customers get a gourmet selection of authentic Mexican, Italian, Thai, American and Ice Cream on a single ticket.

Each authentic restaurant featured at Chefplex is owned and operated independently with its own kitchen area and chef. Customers simply touch pictures of food on the OrderXCEL's monitor to order menu items from any of the different restaurants and pay automatically with cash, check, credit or debit.

Chefplex has already financially committed to an additional 20 OrderXCEL terminals for its next two locations. The company intends to open several restaurants over the next year.
