JonathanSchaeffer is a professor of computing science at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada. Although he claims that his main research area is parallel computing (there are more research dollars available!), artificial intelligence is his passion. He has worked on computer chess, checkers, Othello, poker, and Sokoban. When pryed away from his computer, Jonathan plays competitive chess, studies the history of the polar regions, and spends quality time with his family. ...
He has a home page at
http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~jonathan/
The full wad of his publications are reachable from that site too (or try
