William A. Fink,
an American chess programmer and author of the chess program Sfinks, playing the ACM 1982 and the WCCC 1983[1]. Sfinks was written in Z80-assembly for a TRS-80microcomputer, later ported to 8086-assembly for the IBM PC. In his '82 Newsletter [2], William Fink describes the implementation of a small refutation table inside his iterativealpha-beta framework - to keep two moves of the variation for each root move, and to search those moves first accordantly during the next iteration.
