Where It All Began

Over the last 28 years, many events have occurred in the development of HIARCS. We are detailing on these pages the events, thoughts, up and downs from the early days of HIARCS all the way up to the present. Please bare with us as we flesh out these pages over the coming weeks.

We start the series of articles in the beginning explaining where it all began. That article will take you from 1978, before HIARCS existed even in name, through to 1981 when I finished my O-level project HIARCS.

The next article follows HIARCS' development into an A-level project.

 

"I've been in the chess computer software biz for over a decade and I can tell you that I have never heard more raves from users over any other chess program than I've heard over Hiarcs. Users love this chess engine. I've received literally scores of highly favorable e-mails and comments from happy Hiarcs owners over the years. If you never buy another chess engine, you owe it to yourself to add Hiarcs to your stable of chess playing programs. Playing against Hiarcs is very much like playing against a strong human player." - Hiarcs 9 review by Steve Lopez 17/10/2003
"HIARCS is much better positionally than Deep Blue." - Garry Kasparov 1997 (after game 5 of the rematch)
For Palm, PC & Mac Chess Software with attitude, features and chess playing strength, you can't beat HIARCS!
