Innovation was incorporated in commercial chess teaching products such as ''Maurice Ashley Teaches Chess'' <ref>[http://www.thechessdrum.net/MAshleyCD.html Maurice Ashley Teaches Chess - Review] by [http://www.thechessdrum.net/blog/author/admin/ Daaim Shabazz]</ref>, and ''[[Eric Schiller|Dr. Schiller's Chess Game & How to Play Chess]]'' <ref>[http://www.zillions-of-games.com/whoarewe.html Zillions of Games - Who Are We?]</ref>.

=Description=
from [[Don Beal|Don Beal's]] [[WMCCC 1991]] report <ref>[[Don Beal]] ('''1991'''). ''Report on the [[WMCCC 1991|11th World Microcomputer Chess Championship]]''. [[ICGA Journal#14_2|ICCA Journal, Vol. 14, No. 2]]</ref> :
Written by Jeff Mallett, a newcomer to the computer-chess scene, it has been in full-time development for a year. It has some unusual features which include: not using [[Iterative Deepening|iterative deepening]], never [[Evaluation|evaluate]] statically - obtaining all evaluation scores by [[Incremental Updates|incremental changes]] as [[Make Move|moves are made]], only looking at newly available moves in the final stages of the [[Quiescence Search|quiescence search]], and estimating an "attack factor" distinct from the regular evaluation.
