Amy (chess)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Amy is a computer program for playing chess.
Amy is free software, licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. It is often used in conjunction with a GUI program such as XBoard.
It uses a number of other techniques to improve its performance, such as an opening book (generated by studying master games) to help it start well and hash tables storing previously-analyzed positions to prevent wasting time re-analyzing already analyzed positions.
