Leila,
a WinBoard compliant chess engine written by Carmelo Calzerano in C++, first released in December 2001 when Leila already won the 1st FSI Italian Engine Contest [2], and the 1st Campionato Italiano per Programmi Scacchistici (CIPS). The 0.42 version also supports UCI. Leila is Windows successor of a DOS program PC-Chess, which already participated in the "Historic" First Italian Computer Chess Tournamenst held privately in 1999 by Gianluigi Masciulli [3].

As mentioned, Leila won the CIPS 2001, was runner-up behind Delfi at CIPS 2002 and CIPS 2003 and played in total five CIPS and three Chess Computer Cups. She further participated at the CCT4 with a 50% score.
