I'd suspect it is different, based on the conference.  But it also might not
have much of the data we'd like to see.  IE I suspect that it will be less about
chess, and more about how the hardware was designed to do certain time-critical
functions efficiently, and how architectural problems were addressed over the
evolution from chiptest to deep blue II.

Would still be interesting to hear, but more from a hardware perspective, based
on the "hot chips" title...
