GENERAL INFO
| Description: Kaissa was a chess program developed in the Soviet Union in the 1960’s. It was named as a tribute to Caissa, the goddess of chess. Kaissa became the first World Computer Chess Champion in 1974 in Stockholm. Its success is due to the large number of technical innovations in its development, such as the use of bitboards, programming with more than 10,000 openings and movements, or a series of sophisticated algorithms. |
