There is an interesting article by Feng-hsiung Hsu in the new IEEE Micro journal
This is the Mar/Apr 99 issue . ( http://computer.org/micro/ )
The website is a members only thing , and I'm not.....
The lengthy article had alot of info about the capability of DB , and DB Jr.
A couple highlights :
He reiterates the 10 - 0 score of DB Jr vs leading micros , and
goes on to say there were 40 total games played against the commercials , and
DB Jr only dropped 2 pts. Also , DB Jr scored better than a 3:1 ratio against
the GM's working on the project.
The last paragraph states that he is forming an independent start-up
company to create a new chess chip for consumers , that would make it possible
for a desktop machine to defeat the world champ in a formal match by 2000 ....
Maybe somebody with access could make the article available ???
Or , at least post more of the details/stats ........... Tom Glenn
