I think the article should be renamed to Junior (chess), so that it can encompass the historical versions and current commercial versions, and sort properly in lists. (It is only informally known as "Deep Junior" at computer tournaments, as far as I can tell.) --IanOsgood 19:01, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Does the article mean "position" where it says "combination" when referring to the number of them evaluated per second? If so it is a gross misuse of the term, which has a very specific meaning in chess. Otherwise a clafirication of the intended difference between "positions evaluated per second" (a computer chess standard term) and "combinations evaluated per second" (this article's modism) is required. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.133.121.234 (talk) 22:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC).
According to Bushinsky, one of the innovations of Junior over other chess programs is the way it counts moves. Junior counts orthodox, ordinary moves as two moves, while it counts interesting moves as only one move, or even less. In this way interesting variations are analyzed more meticulously than less promising lines. This seems to be a generalization of search extensions already used by other programs.
I would say it's the opposite of a generalization, the general method would be to extend interesting variations. One implementation would be to count 1 uninteresting variation as 2 moves.
