Computer Chess History Pages
These pages contain a large collection of computer chess tournament results and games in PGN (Portable Game Notation) format. I put most of the collection together in the period of June 2002 to May 2003. A lot of work has gone into fixing scanning and chess notation errors and fixing the game headers in the PGN files to the quality level required for automated tournament table generation with the so-called PGN-tool, developed by myself. The benefit of this approach is, that the results in the game notation is guaranteed *) to be consistent with current and historic publications of tournament tables. Other sources fail in this regard, although I am thankful for having used raw data of the World-Wide Web community as a starting point for many events. I entered a limited number of events by hand and scanned some issues of our Dutch magazine "Computerschaak" for Aegon man-machine tournament info.
