Description

Chapters related to chess (and generalisable) might be interesting for the AAA. Things like:

• move-generation algorithms
• chess engines (ai-based or not)
• pairing algorithms:
  • Round-Robin
  • Swiss:
    • Dubov, Burstein, and Lim (not used that much, but still endorsed by FIDE)
    • Dutch (most used for Swiss tournaments)
    • accelerated tournaments
• tie-breaker systems in chess

Additional context

This is a collection of chapters that arose from a discussion between myself and @ShadowMitia, when talking about writing a Swiss Dutch pairing engine. These chapters are (probably) generalisable to all kinds of sports and activities, and (maybe) voting systems. I don't consider it a high-priority issue, though
