'''Freezer''',<br/>
an endgame analysis tool by [[Eiko Bleicher]] running under [[Windows]] able to generate restricted endgame databases with up to eight pieces or even more with blocked pawns, by relying on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_priori_and_a_posteriori A priory] information in the database generation process using six piece [[Nalimov Tablebases]]. User defined rules for piece-square combinations and material balance are essential to significantly reduce the number of total positions and generation time, otherwise restricted to 2^29 = 536,870,912 positions <ref>[http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=41936&start=1 Re: Use of Eiko Bleicher's FREEZER endgame software] by [[Jesús Muñoz]], [[CCC]], January 12, 2012</ref>.
