 achieve what a full team of developers and computer scientists at Google did,
 this project aims to evaluate how an engine able to play the game of Go could be
 created, implement such an engine and evaluate the results of the whole process.
+
+\subsection{Driving Needs}
+
+As one of the deepest and most studied games in the world, Go presents a very
+interesting problem for artificial intelligence. Implementing not only the
+game's simple but subtle rules, but a system capable of playing it with a
+satisfying level of skill, is a task worth of pursuing as an exercise on
+software design, algorithmics and AI research.
+
+On the practical level, this project can be a foundation for the development of
+different Go analysis algorithms by providing an existing engine to house them,
+which can be of interest to Go players and software scientists alike.
+
+\subsection{Reach}
+
+Presented here are the ideal targets of the project.
+
+\begin{itemize}
+	\item An implementation of the game of Go, that is, a system for holding the
+		moves and variants of a match (a tree of moves) and the logic for the
+		game's rules.
+	\item An engine capable of analyzing board positions and generating strong
+		moves via various decision algorithms.
+	\item Either a GUI specifically developed for the project or an
+		implementation of an existing protocol so the engine can be used with
+		existing tools and GUIs.
+	\item A way for processing existing records of games, which are usually
+		recorded in the SGF format.
+\end{itemize}
