Hi, for those of you interested in parallel MCTS for distributed memory machines, I want to point you to our paper "Parallel Monte-Carlo Tree Search for HPC Systems" recently presented at the EuroPar 2011 conference.
We present a novel approach for the parallelization of MCTS which allows for an equally distributed spreading of both the work and memory load among all compute nodes within a distributed memory HPC systems. This is pretty much the parallelization currently used by our Go Engine Gomorra (KGS account gomorra4). You can download the original paper at Springerlink: http://www.springerlink.com/content/y00906lk33142768/ You can also find an author manuscript on my site: http://www.cs.uni-paderborn.de/fachgebiete/computer-engineering-group/people/schaefers.html Any comments, questions or suggestions are of course welcome. Best wishes, Lars _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://dvandva.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
