The ASAP 2008 release comes with numerous polarization ray-tracing enhancements, including a realistic polarizer model, Stokes-value inputs and data views, Jones-value inputs and data views, and a Poincare sphere visualization tool. Three new optimization methods are included in the release: a Brent's Method routine for single-variable problems, as well as Downhill Simplex and simulated annealing methods for multivariable problems.
