    - The standalone SDKs are integrated into the Qualcomm IM SDK as individual layers that fetch the source or proprietary binaries.
Though it's recommended to use the versions that are integrated with a specific Qualcomm IM SDK, you can update the individual standalone SDKs if necessary.

The SDK versions are configured in the [`\[qcom-ml.inc\]`](https://github.com/quic-yocto/meta-qcom-qim-product-sdk/blob/kirkstone/recipes-qcom-ml/qcom-ml.inc) file.

## Upgrade Qualcomm Neural Processing SDK or Qualcomm AI Engine direct SDK

To upgrade the SDK, update the required version of SDK in the
**Version** field.

To find the version string:

- For Qualcomm Neural Processing SDK, go to
[QSC](https://softwarecenter.qualcomm.com/#/) > **Qualcomm NeuralProcessing SDK** and select the required version from the **Version**
drop-down list.
- For Qualcomm AI Engine direct SDK, go to
[QSC](https://softwarecenter.qualcomm.com/#/) > **Qualcomm AIEngine direct SDK** and select the required version from the
