'''Gerard Zieliński''',<br/>
a Polish mathematician, computer scientist and early computer artist, during the 70s affiliated with the Institute of Mathematics, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_University_of_Technology Warsaw University of Technology].
He used an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odra_%28computer%29 ODRA 1204] computer for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_music#Music_composed_and_performed_by_computers music composed by computers] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic_composition algorithmic composition] <ref>[http://monoskop.org/Gerard_Zieli%C5%84ski Gerard Zieliński - Monoskop]</ref> dedicated to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W%C5%82odzimierz_Koto%C5%84ski Włodzimierz Kotoński] <ref>[http://www.fi.muni.cz/~qruzicka/Vyuziti/FI-vyuziti.HTM Využití samočinných počítačů] (Czech, The use of automatic computers)</ref>.
Later, during the mid 70s, he worked and published on computer chess concerning [[Array|arrays]] and a [[Simplified Evaluation Function|simplified evaluation function]].
=Arrays=
Abstract of ''Arrays for Programming Chess'' <ref> [[Gerard Zieliński]] ('''1976'''). ''[https://www.emerald.com/insight/content/doi/10.1108/eb005412/full/html Arrays for Programming Chess]''. [https://www.emerald.com/insight/publication/issn/0368-492X Kybernetes], Vol. 5, No. 2</ref>
A computer program depends strongly on [[Data|data structures]] processed by it. For time optimization it is often sufficient to change only the data structures. There are 5 parts to a typical chess program: Game manager, [[Move Generation|legal moves generator]], [[Evaluation|evaluation function]], [[Opening Book|openings library]] and [[Endgame Tablebases|algorithm for endings]]. [[Array|Arrays]] play an important role in game managing, generating proper moves and evaluating the position. A properly chosen array form improves computer chess.
=Evaluation Function=
Abstract of a ''Simple Evaluation Function'' <ref>[[Gerard Zieliński]] ('''1976'''). ''[https://www.emerald.com/insight/content/doi/10.1108/eb005425/full/html Simple Evaluation Function]''. [https://www.emerald.com/insight/publication/issn/0368-492X Kybernetes], Vol. 5, No. 3</ref>:
The quality of chess programs is based on [[Search|tree searching]] ; this limits computer chess development. Modern improvements are possible mainly by applying new concepts in a heuristic [[Evaluation|evaluation]] of a [[Chess Position|chess position]]. While seeking optimal partial solutions to obtain general solutions, one is led to huge programs that solve only a small part of a chess problem. It seems that an optimistic approach is to look for a conceptionally simple and general [[Evaluation Function|evaluation function]] which can be [[Automated Tuning|improved]] by using a computer.
