Jesper Kristensen [1] Jesper Torp Kristensen,

a Danish computer scientist affiliated with Bang & Olufsen. He holds a master degree from the Department of Computer Science, Aarhus University under supervision of Peter Bro Miltersen on the topic of generation and compression of endgame tablebases in chess [2]. Applying ordered binary decision diagrams (OBDDs), the objective was to maximize the number of endgame combinations that can be stored in RAM, while still being able to access the tables fast enough to be used during full depth searches. Jesper Kristensen has further written Connect Four programs in various programming languages [3].
