'''Zdenek Zdrahal''', (Czech: Zdenek Zdráhal)<br/>
a Czech British electrical engineer, computer scientist and Senior Research fellow at Knowledge Media Institute <ref>[http://kmi.open.ac.uk/ Knowledge Media Institute | The Open University]</ref> , [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_University The Open University], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milton_Keynes Milton Keynes], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_East_England South East England]. His earlier research affiliations include the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czech_Technical_University_in_Prague Czech Technical University in Prague], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czech_Republic Czech Republic], until 1992 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czechoslovakia Czechoslovakia], the [[University of Edinburgh]], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CINVESTAV Center for Research and Advanced Studies of the National Polytechnic Institute] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ensenada_Center_for_Scientific_Research_and_Higher_Education Ensenada Center for Scientific Research and Higher Education] (CICESE) in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexico Mexico] <ref>[http://www.linkedin.com/pub/zdenek-zdrahal/5/495/235 Zdenek Zdrahal | LinkedIn]</ref>. Zdenek Zdrahal research interests include the application of [[Artificial Intelligence]] in design, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case-based_reasoning case-based reasoning] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knowledge_sharing knowledge sharing].

In 1979/80 as visiting researcher at the [[University of Edinburgh]], Zdenek Zdrahal worked with [[Ivan Bratko]] and [[Alen Shapiro]] on [[Pattern Recognition]] applied to Chess. In fact they used [[Bitboards]], called [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_automaton cellular] 8x8 [[Array|arrays]], to implement their ''Cellular logic processing emulator for chess'' (CLESS) <ref>[[Zdenek Zdrahal|Zdenek Zdráhal]], [[Ivan Bratko]], [[Alen Shapiro]] ('''1981'''). ''[http://comjnl.oxfordjournals.org/content/24/3/263.abstract Recognition of Complex Patterns Using Cellular Arrays]''. [http://comjnl.oxfordjournals.org/content/24/3.toc The Computer Journal, Vol. 24, No. 3], pp. 263-270</ref> . CLESS used three kinds of instructions to recognize simple and more complex chess patterns:
# [[General Setwise Operations#Bitwisebooleanoperations|bitwise boolean operations]] without any interactions between squares
# [[General Setwise Operations#ShiftingBitboards|shifts]] as expand instructions
# [[Fill Algorithms|fill-like]] propagation instructions, internally using the first two kinds of instructions and conditions in loops
