Hydroacenes Made Easy by Gold(I) Catalysis

A novel strategy for the synthesis of partially saturated acene derivatives has been developed based on a Au(I) -catalyzed cyclization of 1,7-enynes. This method provides straightforward access to stable polycyclic products featuring the backbone of the acene series, up to nonacene.

Concurrent Programming Made Easy

The task of programming concurrent systems is substantially more difficult than the task of programming sequential systems with respect to both correctness and efficiency. In this paper we describe a constraint-based methodology for writing concurrent applications. A system is modeled as: (a) a set of processes containing a sequence of “markers” denoting the processes points of interest; and (b...

Programmers like using CQL, because its syntax is already familiar to them from their experience with other database-backed applications. CQL was originally designed to target a single node implementation of the Stanford St...
