Changelog
This changelog lists only the most important changes. Smaller (bug)fixes as well as non-mature features are not part of the changelog. The releases of major and minor versions contain an overview of changes since the last major/minor update.
Version 1.4.x
Version 1.4.1 (2019/12)
- Implemented long run average (LRA) computation for DTMCs/CTMCs via value iteration and via gain/bias equations.

--minmax:lramethod
has been replaced by--lra:nondetmethod

option. - Added script
resources/examples/download_qvbs.sh
to download the QVBS. - If an option is unknown, Storm now suggests similar option names.

--help
-message. Use--help all
to display a complete list of options. - Support for parsing of exact time bounds for properties, e.g.,
P=? [F=27 "goal"]
. - Export of optimal schedulers when checking MDPs with the sparse engine (experimental). Use
--exportscheduler <filename>

round
operator. - PRISM language: Improved error messages of the parser.
