  6. Version 4 Background Originally intended to simply include age-dependent data Review of new data forms indicated that V3 could not handle new dose and risk factor information without a significant re-write • Decided to incorporated accumulated user comments into new version wherever possible • Run time, inconsistencies in pathway results, data problems causing crashes Included forward look at recommended coding methods and architecture to address increased operating system security requirementsand future maintainability • Significantly enhanced development and testing processes controlled by QA plan • Multi-phase testing and line-by line code verification • Included development of independent calculations for major CAP88-PC functions Current release planned as 4.0, still some work to be done
