One Jump Ahead

Dr Jonathan Schaeffer, the creator of the Checkers paying program Chinook, will be giving a seminar at the Australian National University Research School of Information Sciences and Engineering Building, on Thursday 23rd August. The seminar will be from 3:00pm to 4:00pm. In it he will be explaining the development of Chinook, and how it eventually solved checkers.
More detail can be found here.
These seminars are open to members of the public, although the venue is quite small, so arrive just before 3 to get a seat. I'm not sure if this seminar will be video taped (although most seminars are), but if it is, hopefully it can be accessed online.
