HILTS, the Herschel Inspector and Long-Term Scheduler
Visualization, querying, statistical analysis and mid-long-term scheduling are common concerns for any observatory. HILTS is a Java tool developed for the Herschel project to address all these issues in a unified way.

PopStar: A new grid of Evolutionary Synthesis Models in the Virtual Observatory
We present a new set of theoretical evolutionary synthesis models, PopStar. This grid of Single Stellar Populations covers a wide range in both, age and metallicity. The models use the most recent evolutionary tracks together with the use of new NLTE atmosphere models for the hot stars (O, B, WR, post-AGB stars, planetary nebulae) that dominate the stellar cluster's ionizing spectra. The results of the models in VO format can be used through VOSpec.

A new grid of evolutionary synthesis models
We present new evolutionary synthesis models for Single Stellar Populations covering a wide range in age and metallicity. The most important difference with existing models is the use of NLTE atmosphere models for the hot stars (O, B, WR, post-AGB stars, and planetary nebulae) that have an important impact in the stellar cluster's ionizing spectra.
