Quoting Don Dailey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Yes, UCT is easier to use with multiple CPU's because with additional
processors alpha-beta programs do wasted work, unless you are talking
about theoretical programs with perfect move ordering, which you aren't.
Nice that all is clear about alpha-beta programs.
But... does not UCT with additional processors waste a lot of
simulations because what would be the optimal path through the search
tree depends on the threads that have not finished yet?
Some people reported that more processors helps a lot on large boards,
whereas on smaller one there is not much gain.
