Ka mea nāna i hana i ka ʻōnaehana helu ELO
ʻO Arpad Elo he mea pāʻani chess ʻAmelika i hānau ʻia ma Hungarian, physicist, a me ka mea hoʻonaʻauao i ʻike maikaʻi ʻia no ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka ʻōnaehana helu Elo, i hoʻohana ʻia no ke ana ʻana i ka pae akamai o nā mea pāʻani chess. Ua kapa ʻia ka ʻōnaehana helu Elo ma hope ona a ʻo ia ka ʻōnaehana helu hoʻohana nui loa i ka chess a me nā pāʻani ʻē aʻe. Ma kēia ʻatikala, e nānā pono mākou i ke ola a me nā haʻawina o Arpad Elo.
Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Arpad Elo ma Iune 28, 1903, ma Szeged, Hungary. Ua neʻe ʻo ia i ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa me kona ʻohana i ka makahiki 1913, a noho ma Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Ua loaʻa iā ia ke kēkelē laepua ma ka physics mai ke Kulanui o Wisconsin-Madison i ka makahiki 1927 a me ka Ph.D. i ka physics mai ke Kulanui o Chicago i ka makahiki 1933.
Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o kāna Ph.D., ua hana ʻo Elo ma ke ʻano he physicist no ka Franklin Institute ma Philadelphia a me ke Kulanui o Chicago. Ua hana ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he physicist noiʻi no ka National Bureau of Standards a me ka National Research Council.
He kanaka hoʻokani pīkī ʻo Elo a he lālā o ka Milwaukee Chess Club. Ua lilo ʻo ia i hoihoi i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana helu no nā mea pāʻani chess ma hope o ka ʻike ʻana ʻaʻole hiki ke hilinaʻi ʻia nā ʻōnaehana e kū nei.
ʻO ka ʻokoʻa ELO
I ka makahiki 1960, ua paʻi ʻo Elo i kāna pepa mua ma ka ʻōnaehana helu Elo ma ka puke Chess Life. Hoʻokumu ʻia ka ʻōnaehana helu Elo ma ka manaʻo o ka “ELO ʻokoʻa,” ʻo ia ka ʻokoʻa o ka helu ma waena o nā mea pāʻani ʻelua. Hoʻoponopono ʻia ka helu o ka mea pāʻani ma muli o nā hopena o kā lākou pāʻani, me ka helu kiʻekiʻe e hōʻike ana i kahi kiʻekiʻe o ke akamai.
Ua ʻae ʻia ka ʻōnaehana helu Elo e ka United States Chess Federation (USCF) i ka makahiki 1960 a ua hoʻohana ʻia i kēia manawa ma nā ʻāina he 40 a puni ka honua. Hoʻohana ʻia ia i nā pāʻani ʻē aʻe e like me Go a me Scrabble.
Ua hāʻawi nui ʻo Elo i ka ʻoihana physics, me ka noiʻi ʻana i nā waiwai o nā mea paʻa o ka mokuʻāina a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana i kahi ʻano hou o ka ʻike uila. Ua hana pū ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he kūkākūkā no nā hui like ʻole a ua lawelawe ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he polopeka o ka physics ma ke Kulanui ʻo Marquette ma Milwaukee.
Ua loaʻa iā Elo nā makana a me nā hanohano he nui no kāna mau haʻawina i ka chess a me ka physics. Ua hoʻokomo ʻia ʻo ia i ka US Chess Hall of Fame i ka makahiki 2005 a ua loaʻa iā ia ke poʻo inoa ʻo International Master mai ka World Chess Federation (FIDE) i ka makahiki 1971.
