In 1985, a graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University, Feng-hsiung Hsu, began working on his dissertation project: a chess playing machine he called ChipTest. IBM computer scientists had been interested in chess computing since the early 1950s. Over the years, many computers took on many chess masters, and the computers lost. The game is a collection of challenging problems for minds and machines, but has simple rules, and so is perfect for such experiments.
