There have been numerous threads on this forum arguing that either (A) Deep Blue
was the strongest chess computer ever and how much would it have improved had
IBM kept up its chess project etc., or (B) Deep Blue would easily be beaten by
today's top microcomputer programs and that has been the situation for X years
now.

Regardless of your opinion it is obvious from this paper that a tremendous
amount of work went into the Deep Blue project.  Today's CC programmers could do
a lot worse than spend some time rereading it and the other papers referenced by
it.
