I'm developing (in Turbo C) an OTHELLO (TM) program.
Current version at level 4 (abt 30 mins per player, on a Compaq 386s) has
the following features:
- looks forward 4 moves;
- calculates the last 10 moves.
I'm using a simple alfa-beta algorithm with a complex evaluating function
(similar to IAGO). It wins regularly OthelloKiller (Commodore Amiga) and
Windows/othello (ibm) at similar levels. I would appreciate ANY help from
you in order to increase its strenght. In particular I'm interested in
alfa-beta algorithms (killer cut, time limited moves, ... ), special
evaluating functions (about X squares, borders, ... ), literature, books
(titles), other PD or SHAREWARE Othello programs, and tournament dates and
sites (possibly in Europe).
