In our world, where most systems become embedded systems, the approach of designing embedded systems is still frequently similar to the approach of designing organic systems (or not embedded systems). An organic system, like a personal computer or a work station, must be able to run any task submitted to it at any time (with certain constrains depending on the machine). Consequently, it must have a sophisticated general purpose Operating System (OS) to schedule, dispatch, maintain and monitor the tasks and assist them in special cases (particularly communication and synchronization between them and with external devices). These OSs require an overhead on the memory, on the cache and on the run time. Moreover, generally they are task oriented rather than machine oriented; therefore the processor's throughput is penalized. On the other hand, an embedded system, like an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), executes always the same software application. Frequently it is a small or medium size system, or made up of several such systems. Many small or medium size embedded systems, with limited number of tasks, can be scheduled by our proposed hardware architecture, based on the Motorola 500MHz MPC7410 processor, enhancing its throughput and avoiding the software OS overhead, complexity, maintenance and price. Encouraged by our experimental results, we shall develop a compiler to assist our method. In the meantime we will present here our proposal and the experimental results.

Acids IIa-c were prepared by reactions of (4-fluoro-2-iodophenyl)acetic acid with 4-methoxythiophenol, 4-ethoxythiophenol and 4-(ethylthio)thiophenol and cyclized with polyphosphoric acid in boiling toluene to dibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10(11H)-ones IIIa-c. Reduction with sodium borohydride afforded the alcohols IVa-c which were treated with hydrogen chloride and gave the chloro derivatives Va-c. Substitution reactions with 1-methylpiperazine resulted in the title compounds Ia-c out of which the methoxy derivative Ia was transformed by demethylation with boron tribromide to the phenol Id. Compounds Ia-d are very potent neuroleptics exhibiting a clear prolongation of the central depressant and some prolongation of the cataleptic activity.

The acid VI, obtained from 2,5-difluorothiophenol (IV) and (2-iodophenyl)acetic acid, afforded by cyclization with polyphosphoric acid 6,9-difluorodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10(11H)-one (VII) in a satisfactory yield. Two further steps led to the chloro derivative X giving by a substitution reaction with 1-methylpiperazine the title compound III. This substance exhibits some 10% incoordinating activity of the unsubstituted compound I and an indication of cataleptic activity, in contrast to the inactive analogous dichloro compound II. The bulky atom of chlorine in the vicinity of the methylpiperazine residue interferes evidently with the CNS activity; the influence of the atom of fluorine is much less pronounced in this line.

Sustainable production is a principle in which we must meet the needs of the present without compromising the capacity of future generations. Despite the successful development of pesticides against endo and ectoparasites found in domestic ruminants, these parasites are still the major problem of the herbivore production system. The purpose of this study was to know the population of gastrintestinal parasites and their influence on weight gain of calves kept in organic and conventional grazing. Thus, organic and conventional calves were randomly selected in 2008 and 2009. The fecal egg count (FEC) indentified the following genders of helminths: Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus, Oesophagostomum, Cooperia, Strongyloides, Trichuris and oocysts of Eimeria. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) between FEC in organic and conventional animals. Calves younger than 6 months showed significant higher infection (p<0.05) than calves between 7 and 12 months of age. The weight gain observed during the study was of 327g/day and 280g/day for conventional and organic systems animals, respectively. Consequently, the combination of sustainable practices of grazing associated with the selective application of anthelmintics may be a feasible alternative for nematode control in a conventional system and in transition to an organic one.

The species Chiliadenus glutinosus (L.) Fourr. has a large number of therapeutic uses reported in the traditional Spanish medicine. The growing interest in preserving the ethnopharmacological knowledge related to the botanical diversity existing in Spain and the interest in achieving scientific validation of the therapeutic properties of medicinal species has led to the development of this study. To do it, all the known medicinal uses of Ch. glutinosus in Spain were compiled, then an exhaustive bibliographic research on its chemical composition was carried out, and finally, an in silico validation of the bioactive phytochemicals present in a higher proportion in the essential oil of Ch. glutinosus: camphor, borneol, lucinone, glutinone, quercetin, kutdtriol, and kaempferol; in an attempt to justify the reported traditional uses of the species. It was found that much of the traditional medicinal uses of Ch. glutinosus, along with the biological activity of its phytochemicals, are supported by scientific evidence. The results place this species in a prominent position to initiate possible lines of research to develop new, more effective drugs and improve therapies to treat conditions and diseases that affect the different organic systems of the human being.

A novel series of 2-(aryldiazenyl)-3-methyl-1H-benzo[g]indole derivatives (3a–f) were prepared through the cyclization of the corresponding arylamidrazones, employing polyphosphoric acid (PPA) as a cyclizing agent. All of the compounds (3a–f) were characterized using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS, elemental analysis, and melting point techniques. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against diverse human cancer cell lines by the National Cancer Institute. While all of the screened compounds were found to be cytotoxic at a 10 µM concentration, two of them (2c) and (3c) were subjected to five dose screens and showed a significant cytotoxicity and selectivity.
