Jean-Christophe Weill,
a French computer scientist and computer chess and game programmer. He introduced the NegaC* search algorithm as a Negamax implementation of Kevin Coplan's C*. He also created the ABDADA non-synchronized, distributed search algorithm, apparently used in Frenchess. His 1995 Ph.D. thesis in French, Programmes d'Échecs de Championnat: Architecture Logicielle Synthèse de Fonctions d'Évaluations, Parallélisme de Recherche, covers history of computer chess, a broad range of search algorithms and evaluation, audited beside others by Tony Marsland and Jacques Pitrat.
