=Chess Software= For his masters thesis, a chess engine was created in Java with the 64 bits bitboard approach. The idea was to create the source for educational purposes, since a chess application contains a lot of software building challenges such as a nice GUI and optimized computation. This project, unfortunately and practically, could not be fitted into a master's thesis. It has been ported to C++ and communicates to the GUI via the [|JNI]. The forward pruning search optimization was used for research. Several of his Android applications are using this chess engine, now dubbed Android-Chess.
