CCRL Discussion Board

Can somebody recommend some papers to read regarding writing software to generate table bases? I've been reading h.g. muller's page (http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/EGTB.html) but imagine somewhere there are also academic papers on the subject. I'm particularly interested in the discussions about compression.

Thanks,
Andrew

Not all are directly pertinant, and some are even about endgame calculations for other games besides chess. But perhaps something here will be interesting.
