Fast Integrated Spectra Analyzer: A New Computational Tool For Age and
  Reddening Determination of Small Angular Diameter Open Clusters
  We present a new algorithm called 'Fast Integrated Spectra Analyzer" (FISA)
that permits fast and reasonably accurate age and reddening determinations for
small angular diameter open clusters by using their integrated spectra in the
(3600-7400) \AA \ range and currently available template spectrum libraries.
This algorithm and its implementation help to achieve astrophysical results in
shorter times than from other methods. A brief review is given of the
integrated spectroscopic technique applied to the study of open clusters as
well as the basic assumptions that justify its use. We describe the numerical
algorithm employed in detail, show examples of its application, and provide a
link to the code. Our method has successfully been applied to integrated
spectroscopy of open clusters, both in the Galaxy and in the Magellanic Clouds,
to determine ages and reddenings.
