Subject: Re: recursive parallel search

Go up one level in this thread


You can indeed split anywhere in the tree with a recursive search, but you have
to know where to split. If you have the whole stack in (accessable) memory, then
you can find a split point anywhere along the search line. It also makes it much
cleaner to do things like return from a split node, and you can adjust
alpha/beta values along the stack when a new PV comes in on the split node. If
you have a working parallel implementaion, you should probably keep your search
the way it is.
