These are good places to start:
Bruce Moreland's excellent page: http://www.seanet.com/~brucemo/
Tom Kerrigan and TSCP (Tom's Simple Chess Program): http://home.comcast.net/~tckerrigan/
A good one here: http://www.gamedev.net/reference/progra ... es/chess1/
More in depth:
Ed Shcroder: http://members.home.nl/matador/chess840.htm
CCC Resources and Links: http://talkchess.com/ccc/resource/links ... mming.html
Bob Hyatt's technical Papers: http://www.cis.uab.edu/info/faculty/hyatt/pubs.html
Most people start with TSCP or with Gerbil (Bruce's program) and modify it from there.
