Insomniac

a chess program written by James Robertson in C++. He liked the name Insomniac because it implies someone who is tireless, but also somebody who is a little bit crazy. Insomniac used various fractional extensions over the time like one-reply-to-check extensions, and extends half a ply whenever there is a check in the tree. Concerning mate extensions after null move, there were early issues with scores rarely in the mate range, presumably due to failing-hard. Insomniac had it tournament debut at the DOCCC 1999, and further played the WMCCC 2000 in [|London], the WCCC 2002 in [|Maastricht], ICT 2001, ICT 2002, DOCCC 2002 and the first four CCT Tournaments. The Insomniac team was completed by book author Josef Zwinger. || toc =See also=
