Subject: a question about the evaluation function of a chess programs

I think that it is a good idea to have a not symmetric evaluation function.

for example if a program is bad at rook endings it should be against going to it
with both sides, but the evaluation should be more symmetric when the time
control is longer because in this case the program has better chances to find by
search the right moves in positions that it does not understand.

Is there a chess program that uses an evaluation function that is a function of
the time control?
