Freedom
[ Eugène Delacroix - La Liberté guidant le peuple [1] Freedom,
a chess program by Nils Barricelli. It participated at the First World Computer Chess Championship 1974 in Stockholm, running on a CDC Cyber 74. It lost versus the strong CHAOS and Ribbit in round 1 and 2 respectively, and had a lucky draw from Tell.
Barricelli, at that time affiliated with the Oslo University [2], had already experience in chess programming for his Symbioorganisms experiments at University of Manchester in 1962, where Alex Bell worked for him and wrote his first legal-move generator. Freedom’s evaluation was primary based on the ratio of own and opponents mobility aka number of legal moves.
