ChessBrain is a virtual chess supercomputer using the processing power of Internet connected machines.
On January 30th 2004 ChessBrain made history by becoming the first distributed network to play a game against a single human opponent.
ChessBrain II is currently under development. The new design aims to be considerably more scalable.
The ChessBrain project is powered by Open Source software, including the following key projects.
