10-Feb-2017: "Stamp" release

((If you arrived here due to the 11-Aug-2017 announcement, ignore it))

Announcement was sent-out by error.

This CO2MPAS release contains few model changes, the alpha release of the DICE tool, inputExcel files linked to the (https://co2mpas.io/glossary.html#term-dice-report) and some software updates:

• The DICE: a command-line too that reads the CO2MPAS output, and sends it to a time-stamp server, and decodes back the response into a random number, that rsults in 1/10 cases as _Need to undergo a NEDC double-testing.
  Changes on the _CO2MPAS vehicle-model have led to:

• Improve the prediction of the electric model and clutch model, enable an option to use more than one final_drive_ratios for dual/variable clutch vehicles and enhance the input file by providing additional check for has_torque_converter = True and gear_box_type = manual.
  The overall changes make CO2MPAS model become slower by a factor of 40/32.

Results, as always, are validated and presented for:

• "real cases",
• "synthetic cases" with manual transmission vehicles, and
• "synthetic cases" with automatic transmission vehicles.
• Software updates resulted to:

Refined plotting of the plot_workflow for faster navigation on CO2MPAS model.
the CO2MPAS glossary has been completely revised and it has migrated to the main webpage following ReStructured Text format, while Links from the Input template are redirecting there.
A detailed account of the work performed on this release can be found in CHANGES-1.5.X.

17-Nov-2016: "Rally" release

This CO₂MPAS release contains both key model and software updates; additional capabilities have been added for the user, namely:

• the Declaration mode: template & demo files now contain just the minimum inputs required to run under Type Approval command (TA);
• a desktop GUI to launch CO₂MPAS and perform selected tasks (i.e. simulate, datasync time-series for a specific cycle, generate templates);
• several model changes:
  • improved handling of real-measurement data-series - results validated against
    real vehicles, are described in the this release's validation report;
  • support of a series of technologies, some marked as "untested" due to the lack of
    sufficient experimental data for their validation:

	positive ignition	compression ignition
Variable Valve Actuation (VVA):	Declare if present	Not enabled
Lean Burn:	Declare if present	Not relevant
Cylinder Deactivation:	Declaration Optional in V1.4.X (not validated)	Declaration Optional in V1.4.X (not validated)
Exhaust Gas Re-circulation (EGR):	Declaration Optional in V1.4.X (not validated)	Declare if present
Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR):	Not Enabled	Declaration Optional in V1.4.X (not validated)
Gearbox Thermal Management:	Declaration Optional in V1.4.X (not validated)	Declaration Optional in V1.4.X (not validated)

• enhancements and diagrams for the result files; very few backward-compatible changes in the Input files;
• the project has been practically "open sourced", so many of the serving URLs have changed:
  • sources are now served from GitHub: https://github.com/JRCSTU/CO2MPAS-TA
  • a Wiki hosting simple guidelines on how to download, install, and run the CO₂MPAS software;
  • the Issues-tracker for collecting feedback,
  • installation files distributed from Github-Releases page (the https://files.co2mpas.io/ site has been deprecated).

A detailed account of the work performed on this release can be found in CHANGES-1.4.X.

19-Jul-2016: "Qube" release

This release contains both key model and software changes; additional
capabilities have been added for the user, namely:

• the prediction (by default) of WLTP cycle with the theoretical velocity
  and gear shifting profiles (do not use it for declaration purposes, read
  "Known limitations" for this release, below);
• predict in a single run both High/Low NEDC cycles from WLTP ones;
• the datasync command supports more interpolation methods and templates
  for the typical need to synchronize dyno/OBD data;
• the new template file follows the regulation for the "declaration mode"
  (among others, tire-codes);

while several model changes improved the handling of real-measurement
data-series.

The study of this release's results are contained in these 3 reports: manual, automatic, and real
cars, respectively.

A detailed account of the main bugs identified and corrected in the present version can be
