  1. DEEP BLUE Mini Project for CSE 260 Deepa Veerappan Ref. http://www.research.ibm.com/deepblue

  2. Introduction • Most powerful chess playing computer. • Unique combination of innovate software engineering and massive parallel processing power.

  3. Architecture • 32 node IBM RS/6000 SP system • Uses 30 Power Two Super Chip processors (P2SC) • Each node contains 1 micro channel card • Each card contains 8 VLSI chess processors • Total : 256 chess processors

  4. Chess Processor • Single chip chess search engine • Move generation • Evaluation • Search

  5. Deep Blue in Action • Analyzes 200,000,000 positions per second (Kasparov evaluates 3 positions per second) • Evaluates the current position • Integrates chess information • Chooses the optimum move • Deep Blue beat Kasparov!!!

  6. Current Iteration of RS/6000 SP • Named ASCI White • 512-node with 8192 processors • 12.3 trillion calculations/second (teraflops) • 1000 times more powerful than Deep Blue

  7. Applications • Molecular dynamics • Financial modeling • Data mining • Weather Forecasting
