It was designed and released by Rudolf Huber and Stefan Meyer-Kahlen, the author of Shredder , in Nov 2000, and can be seen as a rival to the older and more established Xboard/ Winboard Communication protocol. Like the latter, it is free to use without license fees. Only a few interfaces and engines supported this protocol, until Chessbase - the powerhouse chess software company which markets Fritz , began to support UCI in 2002. As Of 2003 , there are about 50 engines which support UCI and interfaces like Shredder , Fritz, Chess Assistant, Chess Partner, Knights and Arena. EXTERNAL REFERENCES
