Abstract from the Back Cover:
Computers, Chess, and Cognition is an excellent depiction of current
developments in computer chess, a rapidly advancing area of artificial
intelligence research. This volume, which traces historical highlights in the
field and reviews progress in research over the past two decades, encompasses
descriptions of the working of some major chess programs, discussions of
exciting new research ideas, an excellent review of tree searching methods, a
philosophical discussion of the relationship of computer game playing to
artificial intelligence, and an introduction to computer Go as an important new
research area.
This book is intended for students and professionals in the computer science
community. The chapters have been carefully edited to enhance the volume's
appeal to a wide readership, and the inclusion of a complete index and extensive
bibliography make this book a valuable reference work. A foreward by Ken
Thompson, co-inventor of the UNIX operating system and author of the
World Champion Belle chess program, is included.
This book has been written for telecommunications and data communications
professionals and students involved in design and performance evaluation of
communication networks and protocols.
