I have seen different ratings of computer programs and seen tournaments wherein different people have different results in judging computer strength. Would it be useful to not simply give a rating to computer programs but to give it a rating with a variable? For example, suppose program x has a rating of 2300 at game 5 minutes, 2350 at game 30, 2425 at game 2 hours, and 2375 at game 5 hours. I think that would be interesting information, but I haven't found it anywhere. Perhaps it exists, but I'm not looking at the right place. Or perhaps the variable might be CPU speed. If one program gained 100 points by doubling processor speed at a given time, and another gained only 50 points for the same faster processor, that would also be interesting to know. I think, perhaps, the information has all been gathered but not displayed.
