A tribute to Guy Haworth

Abstract

On 16 June 2021, Guy Haworth passed way. He was a longtime and active member of our ICCA/ICGA community, and served as a Vice-President of the ICGA from 2002 until 2005. Guy will be most remembered for his contributions to the ICGA Journal. Since 1998, he regularly published technical notes, tournament reports and (review) articles on computer chess. The most well-known contributions were his endgame articles, though over the years he published more and more reports on computer chess tournaments such as the ICGA World Computer Chess Championships, and TCEC (Cup) tournaments. He was an ardent supporter of research on chess endgames, a mentor for many students, and a friend for all who investigated the nucleus of chess.
