I was wondering which parallel search method is best. Some earlier posted the
info for me about which crafty was the first to use SMP ... (that version was
15.0 ) Now after looking into it the note states it uses the "PVS" algorithm
(Principal Variation Search).  Now i know that Amy uses ABDADA as a parallel
search algorithm. So my ??? is

1. Which algorithm is Crafty using today ???

2. Which algorithm is considered best???

3. What are some other algorithms thats are being used by some other dual
   programs???

Anyone feel free to answer.

Thanks
