'''CHAOS''' was one of the leading programs since it first appeared at [[ACM 1973]] until the mid 80s. CHAOS, which stands facetiously for ''Chess Heuristics And Other Stuff'', has participated in twelve [[ACM North American Computer Chess Championship|ACM tournaments]] <ref>[http://old.csvn.nl/ncc_hist.html North American Computer-Chess Championships], complete History of Tournament Results and Games, prepared by [[Theo van der Storm]], Nov. 23rd, 2002, secretary of the [[CSVN]]</ref> and four [[World Computer Chess Championship|world championships]] <ref>[https://www.game-ai-forum.org/icga-tournaments/program.php?id=42 Chaos' ICGA Tournaments]</ref> , runner up in [[WCCC 1974|1974]] behind [[Kaissa]], defeating favorite [[Chess (Program)|Chess 4.0]]. In 1980 at the [[WCCC 1980|3rd WCCC]], CHAOS was close to becoming champion but lost the playoff against [[Belle|Belle.]] Its last tournament was the [[ACM 1985|16th AMC 1985]] when it lost two games in a very strong field.
=History=
CHAOS started in the late 1960s at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RCA RCA] Systems Programming division in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinnaminson_Township,_New_Jersey Cinnaminson, NJ] with [[Ira Ruben]], [[Fred Swartz|Fred Swartz,]] [[Victor Berman|Victor Berman,]] [[Joe Winograd]], and [[William Toikka]] as first authors. In January 1972, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sperry_Corporation Sperry Univac] (1986 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unisys Unisys]) officially took over the RCA Computer Systems Division and eventually moved everything to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Bell,_Pennsylvania Blue Bell, Pennsylvania]. Later the program has been affiliated with the Computing Center of the [[University of Michigan]] where most of its programmers were staff members <ref>[http://www.computerhistory.org/chess/full_record.php?iid=doc-431614f6cdeeb The Eleventh ACM's North American Computer Chess Championship] as [http://archive.computerhistory.org/projects/chess/related_materials/text/3-1%20and%203-2%20and%203-3.1980_11th_ACM_NACCC/The_Eleventh_ACMs_North_American_Computer_Chess_Championship.1980.062303015.sm.pdf pdf reprint] from [[The Computer History Museum]]</ref> .
=Knowledge vs Search=
CHAOS was written in [[Fortran]] and required in excess of 3,000,000 words of memory to execute, using most of it for storing the [[Search Tree|tree]]. It examines only about 50 [[Nodes per second|nodes/sec]] (1985 70 nodes/sec <ref>[http://www.amazon.co.uk/David-E-Welsh/e/B000AP7TNG/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_1 David .E. Welsh] ('''1986'''). ''[[ACM 1985|ACM's Sixteenth North American Computer Chess Championship]]''. [[ICGA Journal|ICCA Journal]], Vol. 8, No. 4.</ref> ) or about 10,000 per move. The reason why CHAOS evaluated so slowly — their programmers did a better job of [[Evaluation|evaluation]]! Because every minimax decision is made based on a single evaluation, it seemed plausible that the more accurate this number is, the better the quality of tree searching. However, that comes at the cost of missing deep combinations from brute force search, but CHAOS's [[Playing Strength|strength]]/[[Node|nodes]]-evaluated ratio was impressive. The program carried out a selective search with iterative widening, a bit different from the others. Its book contains about 10,000 lines.

CHAOS played 16 NxP!! - a move which has been acclaimed as the finest ever made by a computer. White evaluates that his domination of open lines is compensation for a piece. This judgement is absolutely correct. Of course the piece is not sacrificed entirely and play continues in a very similar fashion to [[Master|MASTER's]] sacrifice of a bishop to [[Tell|TELL]].

The biggest and most powerful computers do that very well. In one second, they can examine thousands of possible moves. The problem is, they stop to consider lousy moves that a human player wouldn't waste a fraction of a second on. On the other side of the fence are the slower but "smarter" computer programs. They can't think about zillions of chess moves, so they need a lot of information about chess plugged into them. CHAOS is one of these latter, pumped with chess information from [[Jack O’Keefe|John J. O’Keefe]], one of Michigan's top players.
