Revision History of Energy Measurement Software Library Releases

Although Energy Measurement Software Library and Energy Measurement Design Center GUI are delivered together, the Energy Measurement Software Library has its own version tracking and change control. Every major library release comes with change control data in the Software Library API guide that describes any new features that have been added and any changes to existing functionality.
