Comments :

GWD has been much improved in 1998.

The algorithms are very simple (just an optimization for pieces number and occupied squares), but very rapid and efficient ; and it is associated to a huge opening library, from TurboDamBase, which has been collected by Klaas Bor, one of the authors (several thousands of masters games). All that gives to the program a rather good level..
