SEE
SEE, (SEEChess, Decapod)
a Chess Engine Communication Protocol aka WinBoard compliant chess engine by Tor Lattimore, written in C++ started in about March 2003 [2].
After some trials with MTD(f) [3], SEE applies PVS based alpha-beta with transposition table, null move pruning, killer- and history heuristic, and generates moves with a 0x88 board and pawn attack tables [4].
