Andrew N. (Andy) Walker,
a British mathematician and computer scientist, affiliated with the School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Nottingham [2], with research interests in game theory and as a chess player [3], in computer chess. He published in the ICGA Journal on search algorithms to solve certain chess problems - in particular helpmates and series-helpmates [4], and on search heuristics in the KQKR endgame [5], lectured at two Advances in Computer Chess conferences, and is author of the didactic chess program NotChess, written in C and originated as a simple program to help teach university students taking a game theory course [6] [7].
