Hi Folks, This is my first post to this forum. I work in the Intel Compiler Lab on automatic vectorization for multimedia extensions (see http://www.intelcompiler.com for some details), but in my free time I have started working on a chess engine that will be optimized for the Streaming-SIMD-extensions (SSE/SSE2/SSE3). Currently I am making my first steps on getting my own Universal Chess Interface implementation to work with my favorite chess environment: the Fritz interface. I noticed that some things seeem to work a little different in Fritz than in the formal description (is this a known deviation?), but I am pretty confident I will figure it out. Are there other ongoing research projects that try to exploit the Streaming-SIMD-extensions? If so, I would like to hear about this. Also, although initially I want to focus on the engine, eventually I may also want to implement my own book and access to Nalimov tablebases during the search. Stefan Meyer-Kahlen kindly pointed me to the Crafty download to figure out how the tablebases can be accessed. Will incorporating some Crafty source into my own engine have any impact on licensing? Nice "meeting you folks" and looking forward to some nice discussions! Aart Bik http://www.aartbik.com
