+\begin{itemize}
+ \item The IO component is the one called from other applications and offers

+ \item The EngineBoard component stores the state of the match, recording
+ information such as the history of boards positions and whose turn goes

+ \item The EngineAI component is responsible of analyzing the match and

+ by the AI, such as when a move needs to be generated by the engine.
