'''Ikarus''',<br/>
a chess engine by [[Munjong Kolss|Munjong]] and [[Muntsin Kolss]], written in [[Delphi]]. The development started in January 1997, and in May 2000 Ikarus was released as [[ChessBase#YoungTalents|Young Talent]] by [[ChessBase]] <ref>[http://www.chessbase.com/support/support.asp?pid=100 Young Talents] from [[ChessBase|Support - ChessBase]], May 28, 2000 (dead link)</ref> <ref>[http://scleinzell.schachvereine.de/p_spielprogramme/youngtal_b.shtml Young Talents, Teil 2] by [[Peter Schreiner]], Mai 2000, hosted by [http://scleinzell.schachvereine.de/home/news.shtml Schachclub Leinzell] (German)</ref>, and is now a private engine. Ikarus is the German spelling of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icarus Icarus] from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_mythology Greek mythology], with his attempt to escape from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crete Crete] by means of wings that his father, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daedalus Daedalus], constructed from feathers and wax. However, the chess engine Ikarus is not related with the internet chess client ''Icarus'' by ''Random Software'' <ref>[http://www.randomsoftware.com/apps/icarus/index.html Random Software - Mobile / Linux / Windows / Mac / Utilities / Games / Anything | Icarus]</ref> .
