Feel free to add another field of study to this list. {IMO} The best in the world are [in no particular order]: 0. Deep Blue team 1. People who have topped the SSDF 2. People who have won a WCCC or WMCCC Mostly, they are programmers. Hans Berliner was a chess expert, but also a programming expert. Deep Blue team had GM advisors. I think, to be successful, you will have had some kind of input from all of the above. [Chess expert, Programming expert, Game theory expert, hardware expert]. Probably hardware expert is not as important as the others, but it certainly would not hurt any.
