Gunnar Andersson,
a Swedish computer scientist and Ph.D. from Royal Institute of Technology. As Othello programmer, Gunnar Andersson is primary author of the strong Othello program Zebra ^[1] and its Windows freeware incarnation WZebra ^{[2] [3]}, already incorporating advanced bitboard techniques, for instance the Kogge-Stone Algorithm. An older 2003 MMX implementation of Dumb7Fill in inline assembly was used to determine mobility ^[4], while the implementation by co-author Toshihiko Okuhara in Zebra looks parallel prefixed ^[5].
