3| 11 February 2009: release Version1.5beta |
4 \-----------------------------------------/
5
6 * Changes relative to V.1.4beta:
7 - implementation of the energy flow
8 - calotowers are first merged then smeared
9 - photons are based on these calotowers: conservative approach
10 - electrons are separately smeared according to the calotower
11 resolution.
12 - new: list of calorimeters ; CaloUtil added
13 - new: constants moved from SmearUtil.* to D_Constants.*
14 - ParticleUtil changed into D_Particle
15 - tracks and Taujets have now a charge
16 - output available as a LHCO (text) data file, in option
17 - extensive test and correction of the Bfield
18 - using now an exact computation, assuming solenoidal field
19 - about 20% faster than iterative approach
20 - charged lepton isolation: IsolPt available

23| 09 February 2009: release Version1.4beta |
24 \-----------------------------------------/
25
26 * Changes relative to V.1.3beta:
27 - new overal header and program output to screen.
28 - new trigger cards ATLAS and CMS-like
29 - new detector card ATLAS oriented
30 - New input parameters in the datacard for very forward detectors
31 - Modification of the Resolution.cpp code to run on the output of Delphes directly
32 - #include statements have been cleaned ; more include paths
33 in the compilation, leading to easier #include statements.
34 - extensive use of 'valgrind' for the search for memory leaks.
35 No more explicit leak is in the code. The only leaks left are
36 related to ROOT, to mcfio dependecy and to Hector.
37 This implied the systematic addition of copy-constructor,
38 operator= and correct destructors in Delphes classes
39 - update of the BField simulation; still in the case of B = Bz only
40 - JetsUtil* files renamed to JetsUtil*
41 * Private modifications in dependencies
42 - memory leaks removed in FROG (applied on Frog v1.106)
43 - systematic change of by-value parameters to "by-const-reference"
44 in Hector (applied on Hector v1.3.1)
45
46 /-----------------------------------------\
47| 29 January 2009: release Version1.3beta |
48 \-----------------------------------------/
49
50 * Changes relative to V.1.2beta:
51 - Cleaning of non necessary comments
52 - Removal of the minimal transverse momentum applied on tracks and calotowers when the magnetic field is simulated
53 - Correction of the FROG interface
54 - Addition of a new standalone code to run FROG on the analysis output ROOT file
55 - New magnetic field algorithm: exact computation in case of magnetic field having a Bz component only
56 - Time performance monitoring
57 - Cleaner tarball
58 * Known limitations of this release are:
59 -Work is currently being done on eta/phi variables leading to some uncertainties on these quantities when the magnetic field is switched on

64| 18 December 2008: release Version1.2beta |
65 \-----------------------------------------/
66
67 * Changes relative to V.1.1beta:
68 - Reconstruction of jets: the number of defined cell
69 towers is now correctly taken into account by the
70 jet algorithms
71 - Input for jet reconstruction: calotowers instead
72 of generated particles
73 - Input datacard parameters now taken into account by
74 the jets, very forward detectors, magnetic field
75 propagation steps
76
77
78 /-----------------------------------------\
79| 13 December 2008: release Version1.1beta |
80 \-----------------------------------------/
81
82 * Changes relative to V.1.0beta:
83 - Addition of a class that run the FROG code on the
84 reconstructed events to perform visualisation of
85 events and detector geometry
86 - Addition in the datacard of flags to switch on/off
87 magnetic field, very forward detectors, trigger and FROG
88 running
89
90
91 /-----------------------------------------\
92| December 2008: release Version1.0beta |
93 \-----------------------------------------/
94
95 * First available release
96 * Includes
97 - Classes that perform
98 - Conversion of HepMC, LHE and root file conversion
99 - Simulation of charged particles into a magnetic field
100 - Smearing of the energy of undecaying particles
101 according to some applied resolution functions
102 - Reconstruction of jets using the FastJet package
103 - Simulation of very forward detector selection
104 - Application of a trigger selection
105 - An input datacard that permit two easily change running
106 configuration of the detector simulation (e.g. data/DataCardDet.dat).
107 - An input trigger datacard to apply a selection of events
108 with user defined trigger bits (e.g. data/trigger.dat).
109 - An example of user code to run on the output root file of
110 the DELPHES program.
111 * Known limitations of this release are
112 - Imperfect reconstruction of jets: the number of defined cell
113 towers not correctly taken into account by the jet algorithms.
114 - Reconstruction of very forward detectors not entirely completed.
