World Team Endgame Strategy Explained, by Dr. Kenneth W. Regan ("K.W.ReganIM2405" on BBS). For all chess players to read, enjoy, and understand.
Tests of Topalov's team's cheating claims during the
2006 World Championship Title Re-Unification Match in
Elista, Kalmykia, Russia, 9/23/06--10/13/06.
Also general theory for testing fidelity of decision-making to
an agent's recommendations, which is a general AI/machine-learning issue.
Computer Chess Topics,
including in-situ testing of pseudorandom generators used for
subset-sum (Zobrist) hashing.
Endgame Studies and other chess problems.
An "Engine Study", meaning one
designed to require a fast computer program (with Nalimov
EGTs, even) for most enjoyable solving!
Using a computer is not considered cheating here---but of course,
you have to be both "insane" and lucky to actually compose
one of these! A 6-man EGT of KQkbnp at the
Knowledge4IT
Free EGT Server, supplied the final "luck", with a beautiful
quiet move and symmetrical position in the (not unique) main EGT line.
PGN file analyzing the drama-filled King and Pawn ending from the key last-round game Mamedyarov-Sokolov from Essent 2006. A hold by Black would have given clear first to Judit Polgar in her comeback from maternity! It has two situations with delicious irony and instructive comments for general playing levels. PGN files are jumbles when read as text, but can be decoded and viewed by most chess programs, including the freeware "Scid" (see Wikipedia entry and SourceForge page), and (the freeware version of) ChessBase. Actually, the free program ChessPad for Windows from WML Software (not to be confused with a shareware $25 program ChessPad for Palm Pilot at http://www.solutionsinhand.com/ChessPad/ChessPad.htm) gives an especially pleasing effect. It shows just what you should see to make it a puzzle or study, and doesn't care that I put Text-After-Move when on other viewers I should have used Text-Before-Move and vice-versa.
Also, with SCID you should realize that if you step into a variation, you can only step out back to the main line by clicking a down-arrow, after clicking left-arrow to get back to the start-of-line for the variation.
