an American chess programmer and author of the chess program Sfinks, playing the ACM 1982 and the WCCC 1983. Sfinks was written in Z80-assembly for a TRS-80 [|microcomputer], later ported to 8086-assembly for the IBM PC. In his '82 Newsletter, William Fink describes the implementation of a small refutation table inside his iterative alpha-beta framework - to keep two moves of the variation for each root move, and to search those moves first accordantly during the next iteration.
