Jacques F. Middlecoff, an American mathematician and computer scientist with more than 40 years experience in scientific software engineering and more than 20 years experience in parallel programming, research associate and senior systems analyst in parallel processing and numerical weather prediction at Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere at Colorado State University, research partner of Earth System Research Laboratory, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) , Boulder, Colorado, currently working on massive parallel GPU computing.

=Chess programmer= During the 80s, while affiliated with Cypress, San Jose, California, he developed two chess programs. SPOC played the ACM 1985 in Denver on an IBM PC, and Chess Monster, which participated at the WMCCC 1986 in Dallas running on a Compaq 386.
