Abstract

This paper presents a new software package based on an intelligent algorithm for playing backgammon. The software is implemented in Java language. The software allows both a game between two human players and between a human player and computer. In case of playing versus computer, a heuristic algorithm was used. The software package contains a module for tracking several backgammon games in the local area network.
