Each release of iSBEM and SBEM will have a version number of the form X.Y.a ‘X’ will represent the Major Release Number, and will only change when there is a significant enhancement tothe functionality or scope of the calculations or the data behind them. This should only change very occasionally – a few times only during the currency of a particular version of Part L. ‘Y’is the Minor Release Number, starting at zero, which will change when wemake minor improvements, orcorrect bugs, which have an effect on the numeric result of the calculation ‘a’ is a letter representing the version number. This will change when we have to correct bugs which affect theease of use of the tool, or the presentation of the output, for example, but have no effect on the calculated results. So the first release should strictly have been v1.0.a. The second is v1.0.
