It was developed the  the CONVERT language [4, 6, 7], to manipulate symbols. It is implemented as an interpreter on Lisp. This was the Bachelour thesis  A. Guzmán, directed by Harold V. McIntosh. CONVERT works with patterns into an expression, which compares against another expression (the "work space") that contains solely constants. The patterns contain free variables that can take values, in order to join. A pattern join with an expression if there is a valid assignment of values to the pattern's variables.

The language was used for McIntosh for algebras of groups applied to physics problems. Also, R. Segovia used Convert to make compilers, and Gerardo Cisneros for a REC compiler. Other applications of CONVERT are to analyze scenes containing drawings with llines  (in “vector maner”, it would be said ho) [8, 9, 10, 11, 18], and to find trajectories in a graph [13].

It is used a tree of squares or rectangles (later called tree quad, or quad-tree) to represent geographical regions with arbitrary and variable presition. It was built with this representation a database that can contain (to describe) any region, with superficial attributes (a lake) or of area, of line (a river) and punctual (a lighthouse).

It was designed,  simulated and built a computer (AHR) with several processors, it doesn't possess operating system in hardware, and it uses Lisp like main language. 
 
The design was also made to convert a Soviet computer (PS-2000),  SIMD model, into a computer MIMD model, like the AHR, without changing the hardware neither the machine architecture.

It was designed and built (interpreter and compiler) a language where the programs are expressed as directed networks. Each node is another visual program or a program in C (or Ada). The arches take information (exit results that become entrance data for the next node "corriente abajo") represented by objects. This language allows to express calculations in parallel. The execution regim is the same of data flow: a node is shot (and it is executed without interruption) when all their entrance data are present in the entrance arches. The compiler generates distributed code, and allows to specify the object machine (a parallel or distributed architecture) for which the code is wanted.

A program  that  learns from learning matrix , and whose exit is a program in C was built. This program in C represents a decision tree. This tree (and the program) classify objects according to already  learned from the learning matrix. It means, starting from a learning matrix, it is generated a classifier automatically (a program in C) that assigns classes to objects.

Several programs were built, these gather automatically data files that are in existent computers of work centers. In an asynchronous way, data are extracted (making summaries) of any files, and they are sent to a database “current up”, to regional or national offices, for example. The ANASIN acts like a “bomb of data” that periodically extracts operational information from the work centers, it converts it (when summarizing it) in strategic data, the information is  “pump” or impel to relational databases in regional and corporate centers, for making of decisions. The operation of ANASIN is completely automatic, and the data are extracted and sent out of pick hours, typically at nights and weekends.

On the ANASIN a software was built for data mining, this software finds interesting situations, deviations, tendencies and anomalies, in huge of data. The miners work out pick hours autonatically, without human intervention, and they put their discoveries in a file of “found interesting situations”, for their later revision by people.

EVA is a software that (by an knowledge exam) it determines the initial knowledge of a student about a certain topic, EVA asks him/her the wanted final state (to where she wants to reach in her studies), and EVA designs him/her individual study plancalled “learning trajectory.” Then, EVA sends him (by Internet) educative material according to the particular plan of studies. This material (called “polilibros”)  is assembled for each student. It contains modules that make a fnal exam – by computer–to the student, this way EVA knows where each student is on his learning trajectory. While comparing trajectories, EVA finds advisors for each student, and studeymates, EVA join all of them. If the student provides his actvities schedule, EVA suggests him synchronous activities (a teleconference, a presential chat) appropriate with his available time and his learning stage.  
 
EVA mitigates the need of each student to be present or in the same place that the professor is, at the same hour. It makes the education is not present (remote) and asynchronous.

The Inter-science may be the communication and effective inter-relationship among several sciences – example, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Humanities. The Inter-science arises because there are problems that transcend a specialty. It studies areas that are far away between two or more  Science disciplines.  
 
The Inter-science is an artificial phenomenon. It doesn't care how  it organizes or divides the Science, a human being will be able to reach a small part of it: what a human can learn in  20 years of study, from primary to doctorate.  
 
Which are the limitations or advantages of the human being before the Interciencia? What roll will paly in it? And the same questions, but applied to the computers? The article offers some answers.

Study of autonomous entities, called agents. Our agents possess a purpose or goal, and they possess multiple execution strands. The interaction with other agents takes place in some scenarios (called scripts or interactions in Spanish). For example in a restaurant, in an auction, etc. Also, the agents use knowledge representations a little different: their ontologies don't coincide, thats why they have to dialogue to understand each other fully. The reaction of the agents is also modeled before unexpected events that make them stray of its trajectories or plans.  

We propose the development of to model that enables agents that uses different ontologies to interact and interchange information among them.  
The behavior of each agent will be defined in to high-level language that we will design and develop, with the following features:

(1) Each agent and each interaction can be described by several sequences of instructions that can be executed concurrently (multi-threaded). As part of our research, we will deliver an executor (perhaps an interpreter) for above language.

(2) The model allows communications between agents that do not share the same data dictionary (ontology), but rather need a conversion or matching among the primitives they use.

(3) Some of the scripts can be partially executed, thus giving rise to the idea of a “degree of satisfaction” of a given behavior or interaction.

Hierarchical Architectures.

Design and simulation of  processors collection and their organization, to constitute multi computers which work in parallel, process high level languages as if it were machine language, adaptable and re configurated. They work according to the programs demands  that are being executed.

Database machines

Preliminary study to design ad doc hardware and software for the handling of automated information systems. We decided not to build anything.

 Distributed computing.  

The intelligent interconnection of several mini or microcomputers to built a more capacity computer in a lower price.  

Parallel processing  

Visit to the Institute of Control Sciences, Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union (Moscow), to redraw the computer PS-2000, a machine SIMD with 64 minicomputers, each one similar to the size of a PDP-11, achieving that it behaves like a computer AHR.

+Miguel Gerzo (Doctorado, Prof.).

Data flow architectures.

Design, with the Prof. Kemer Norkin, the second version of the  AHR computer, called HECTOR, a hierarchical micros. It is a computer for general purposes that executes (in parallel) LISP like main programming language. It can also be seen as microcomputers in a LAN, where the machines can share the outlying devices (and the data) and to execute extensive programs jointly. Design in
