Lambertus (Dap) Hartmann, a Dutch astronomer, publicist, computer chess programmer, and associate professor at Delft Centre for Entrepreneurship, Delft University of Technology. He holds a Ph.D. in astronomy from Leiden University in 1994 on the distribution of atomic hydrogen in the Milky Way, and after scientific research in that field at Harvard University, the University of Bonn, and the Max Planck Institute, he made the transition to innovation management and the valorization of new technologies, and teaches at TU Delft. Along with Peter Kouwenhoven, Dap Hartmann is co-author of the chess program Dappet. In the computer chess world, he is known as eponym of the Butterfly Boards and inventor of the related Butterfly Heuristic (even if he denied implementation ), and his interesting articles and reviews in the ICCA Journal.
