Are these chess symbols typical for the "The Bangiev method" or is this same other method? I've googled around the net but I couldn't find anything about this. What's the origin?

wsq = white square
bsq = black square
CM = candidate move
GM = game move

Ok, so far i do understand, but what does the following symbols mean?

bI
+bI
wI
-sp
PiS
d4S
-SB
+D
SC=CI

+

=>
( )

and others...

wS x N =>
e5-Sp, +bI, +S(d4S>c5,bsq)
e4S>d5,Bsq,>>e5,d6,c7*
CM:0-0,+wI, +S(e4S>f5, wsq),+D
3.E:white, >e4-Sp, pf2*, pc2*, pe4*

Be so kind and try to explain!
