2 * Changes relative to V.1.4beta:
3 - implementation of the energy flow
4 - calotowers are first merged then smeared
5 - photons are based on these calotowers: conservative approach
6 - electrons are separately smeared according to the calotower
7 resolution.
8 - new: list of calorimeters ; CaloUtil added
9 - new: constants moved from SmearUtil.* to D_Constants.*
10 - ParticleUtil changed into D_Particle
11 - tracks and Taujets have now a charge
12 - towards a LHCO output: LHCOConverter class
13 - extensive test and correction of the Bfield
14 - using now an exact computation, assuming solenoidal field
15 - about 20% faster than iterative approach

19| 09 February 2009: release Version1.4beta |
20 \-----------------------------------------/
21
22 * Changes relative to V.1.3beta:
23 - new overal header and program output to screen.
24 - new trigger cards ATLAS and CMS-like
25 - new detector card ATLAS oriented
26 - New input parameters in the datacard for very forward detectors
27 - Modification of the Resolution.cpp code to run on the output of Delphes directly
28 - #include statements have been cleaned ; more include paths
29 in the compilation, leading to easier #include statements.
30 - extensive use of 'valgrind' for the search for memory leaks.
31 No more explicit leak is in the code. The only leaks left are
32 related to ROOT, to mcfio dependecy and to Hector.
33 This implied the systematic addition of copy-constructor,
34 operator= and correct destructors in Delphes classes
35 - update of the BField simulation; still in the case of B = Bz only
36 - JetsUtil* files renamed to JetsUtil*
37 * Private modifications in dependencies
38 - memory leaks removed in FROG (applied on Frog v1.106)
39 - systematic change of by-value parameters to "by-const-reference"
40 in Hector (applied on Hector v1.3.1)

42 /-----------------------------------------\
43| 29 January 2009: release Version1.3beta |
44 \-----------------------------------------/
45
46 * Changes relative to V.1.2beta:
47 - Cleaning of non necessary comments
48 - Removal of the minimal transverse momentum applied on tracks and calotowers when the magnetic field is simulated
49 - Correction of the FROG interface
50 - Addition of a new standalone code to run FROG on the analysis output ROOT file
51 - New magnetic field algorithm: exact computation in case of magnetic field having a Bz component only
52 - Time performance monitoring
53 - Cleaner tarball
54 * Known limitations of this release are:
55 -Work is currently being done on eta/phi variables leading to some uncertainties on these quantities when the magnetic field is switched on

60| 18 December 2008: release Version1.2beta |
61 \-----------------------------------------/
62
63 * Changes relative to V.1.1beta:
64 - Reconstruction of jets: the number of defined cell
65 towers is now correctly taken into account by the
66 jet algorithms
67 - Input for jet reconstruction: calotowers instead
68 of generated particles
69 - Input datacard parameters now taken into account by
70 the jets, very forward detectors, magnetic field
71 propagation steps
72

74 /-----------------------------------------\
75| 13 December 2008: release Version1.1beta |
76 \-----------------------------------------/
77
78 * Changes relative to V.1.0beta:
79 - Addition of a class that run the FROG code on the
80 reconstructed events to perform visualisation of
81 events and detector geometry
82 - Addition in the datacard of flags to switch on/off
83 magnetic field, very forward detectors, trigger and FROG
84 running

87 /-----------------------------------------\
88| December 2008: release Version1.0beta |
89 \-----------------------------------------/
90
91 * First available release
92 * Includes
93 - Classes that perform
94 - Conversion of HepMC, LHE and root file conversion
95 - Simulation of charged particles into a magnetic field
96 - Smearing of the energy of undecaying particles
97 according to some applied resolution functions
98 - Reconstruction of jets using the FastJet package
99 - Simulation of very forward detector selection
100 - Application of a trigger selection
101 - An input datacard that permit two easily change running
102 configuration of the detector simulation (e.g. data/DataCardDet.dat).
103 - An input trigger datacard to apply a selection of events
104 with user defined trigger bits (e.g. data/trigger.dat).
105 - An example of user code to run on the output root file of
106 the DELPHES program.
107 * Known limitations of this release are
108 - Imperfect reconstruction of jets: the number of defined cell
109 towers not correctly taken into account by the jet algorithms.
110 - Reconstruction of very forward detectors not entirely completed.
