GridBook, Large Scale Othello

Introduction

This is a project where I am intending to do a large-scale distributed calculation of an opening book for the board game Othello. Positions are stored in a relational database (I have chosen PostgreSQL) using NHibernate object/relational mapper.

The project is still in its infancy, but the goal is to use Edax, a very good Othello engine, to calculate new positions. I am also intending to use a service bus, probably Rhino Service Bus, to distribute work to clients potentially all over the world.

Code

The code is being developed in a Domain-Driven Design style. Here's the layout:

  • GridBook - This is the main assembly. It contains the Domain classes and service classes, as well as mappings for FluentNHibernate.
  • GridBook.Test - Tests for the domain classes. Uses in-memory SQLite to run database tests quickly. All tests are using AAA (Arrange/Act/Assert), Behaviour-Driven Development style. This works particularly nice with DDD.
  • GridBook.CommandLine - kind of service program that contains many subprograms for different tasks, such as conversion functions (book file to csv), etc. Uses Castle Windsor DI container for easy extensibility.
