Deep Blue was the best chess computer in 1997. Since then, modern chess engines have made significant improvements and are now far stronger than any human grandmaster. This talk gives an overview of how chess engines work, covering search/evaluation and interesting high-level and low-level optimizations. It will also discuss the Fishtest distributed testing framework, a method to measure strength improvement during chess engine development.
