The first version of CRISIS was released in 1986 by Professor Mario Ordaz who is also the lead author of all subsequent versions. The first version of CRISIS was a command line application developed in Fortran language. Subsequent versions were developed in Visual Basic and included a graphical user interface. In 2017 Prof. Ordaz decided to continue the development and support of CRISIS through his company ERN, rebranding it as R-CRISIS. The table below summarizes the main releases of the program.
