AFAIK, Doctor is based on the program "Bobby" which participated quite
successfully in various tourneys several years ago; e.g. the IPCC had been won
once. It's certainly in the class of strong amateurs.

If I remember correctly, somewhere on the chessbase page section
(www.chessbase.com) , where the engines are introduced, a lot of information
about Doc is given by the authors.
